Starter motor

It appeared that the motor that came with the bike was dysfunctional. I came to this conclusion by attaching the positive to the battery's positive and grounding the battery, then I jumped the solenoid with a screwdriver. The solenoid clicked, but the motor didn't spin. I then ground the spare motor I had (it was off the bike) and tested it by jumping the same as before. It did work sufficiently, so I removed the previous motor's two bolts and reattached.
