That sounds pretty normal for a Arctic Cat!! Is the engine turning over or is it not doing anything? Does it have a pull start?

t.wilbanks i know but couldn't pass it up practically free so its one of those deals and if i put it on a charger for a bit cranks right up tested the battery shows to be good it might crank up 5 or 6 times before it doesn't crank again and the starter just kinda clicks so would it be the starter and no pull start

i would have the starter and the coil checked out. Sometimes you can tap the starter with a hammer and get it going.

If it starts fine cold, and clicks, or nothing at all when hot, sure sounds like the starter is bad.
