Brand New Stryker - Will Not Start

I bought a brand new stryker about a month ago. It's still under warranty... but it's sunday and i want to ride. I went to start it the other day and it was just making a sound like sparks coming from a loose wire. I charged the battery and tightened the terminals and now it will turn to the "on" position fine, and show everything in the gauges...

Now when i try to start it - it will simply "Pop" like the sound when you smack positive and negative terminals together on a battery charger. It will take a second, the guage will reset, and it will be back to normal. The bike runs if someone pushes and i Jump stat it, but it will not start on it's own.

Ideas? Where is the starter located?

It's a brand new bike man !!!! It shouldn't give you any problems unless they sold you a lemon!!! or an used bike... I would take it to the dealer and have them figure it out... Also they shouldn't charge you for it since it's BRAND NEW from the dealer...
Glad to hear it went fine man !!! Now ride it like you stole it... enjoy
