Starter solenoid

Well I’m getting this little bike back together. It had low miles and the PO tried to Hotwire because he lost the key. The starter solenoid had blown the 20 amp fuse. I replaced the ignition switch, battery, and fuse. I have checked and tested all fuses and connectors. Battery is at 12.8v. I turn the key and absolutely nothing! No sign of life. I checked continuity through the new switch all the way to the white connector on the solenoid. Red and black/white wires close when switch is made. I am thinking starter solenoid? Are you supposed to hear a click or something when you turn the key? Usually good with this stuff and I sure it is something simple. The 4 pins on the ss - I have a path from the neg terminal to the top 2 pins. Lower 2 pins a and b I get 5 ohms between them. Let’s figure this out. Please and thank you
