So is it a dying starter or could it be a dying position sensor?
My money is on the starter - I had one behave like this on a previous 75 that I owned - sometimes it would fire up fine, other occasions you just got a click. New contacts in the starter fixed it. For 10 pounds or so, I would go for new starter contacts first.
