Please help, bike wont start

Hi, am in need of an idea or 2, I have had my 04 plate Mille since last Sept and has always started fine, it has been run a few times since X-Mas so I cannot attribute this to being left over the winter. I tried to start it up yesterday and it wouldn't fire, then the battery died, it is always on a trickle charger so I put it back on overnight but now all I get is a loud click from the ecu, you can really feel it if you put your hand on top of it. The VBatt is reading 11.5volts so I know there is power but there is nothing now but the clicks. I have a Datatool Vito alarm fitted but dont think it would be that as it still arms and disarms ok. I bought the bike from my brother and he had it for 6 years so we know the history and this is the first time it has done this.

Any ideas will be greatfully received
 
11.5 volts is too low you need 12.5 minimum, sorry dude its new battery time.
Trickle chargers wont deal with a battery that breaks down under load.
 
Cheers for the advice, I suppose its better than an ECU change, many thanks.
