Default Heat

Heat is often a starter killer. Put a heat shield between the starter and the exhaust. You can make one out of some galvanized sheet metal and a few screws (they sell nicer ones, of course).

If the exhaust is real close to (or worse yet, touching) the starter, that would explain it.

Otherwise, you might have a bad ground that would take out your starter.
