Follow the +12 volt lead backwards from the starter motor. It'll lead you right to it. It is possible the starter switch contacts are stuck too. so check that as well. Do you have a test light? That will make quick work of trouble shooting once you get to the relay.

I think I burnt up my starter ;D. I burnt through the wire on the hot exhaust(wasn't routed properly). Fixed the wire but still no beans. I can hear the relay. I've been meaning to pull the starter off and test it. Guess I really don't have to pull it off. I'm just lazy.

Is there any other fuses other than the one on the battery?

More likely you fried the relay. It can still click, but have NO contact left inside. Use a Bosch 30 amp. They're cheaper, and at the hardware store.
