take it off, disconnect the 10mm bolt holding the wire that goes to the battery, and take off the 2 12mm bolts ....

....you can test the starter by connecting the large bolt at the bottom to the positive, and grounding out the starter...make sure you also touch the small spade like prong to the +ve too and check to see if the bendix moves out and spins.
or you can take it to CRAPPY TIRE and get them to check it out.
