I didn't store my bike properly over the winter and forgot to take the battery out, etc.
I charged the battery (trickle charged) and went to ride it. I got it to my dad's workshop (1 1/2 miles away) and it started "ticking" teh same sound it makes when it tries to start but won't... The bike was already on but it was making the sound anyway. I went to turn it off and all was good but then I tred starting it again and it was doing the same thing but loud and real fast (lots of fast repeated ticking) I realized something wa swrong so I hit the kill switch and took out the key but the bike stayed on and drained the battery pretty quick...
Any idea what the issue is?

I think I found the problem. on page 1-27 of this pdf: http://static1.dailymotos.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Kymco+Venox+250250i+EN.pdf (http://static1.dailymotos.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Kymco+Venox+250250i+EN.pdf)
it says "Starter relay shorted or stuck"

Check the relay that the positive battery cable goes to and see if it's fried and also check the ground from the negative cable.

Thjat happens on the old K75's. A low battery causes the starter selenoid to weld itself on.
Try hitting it with a screwdriver handle or open it up and pry the contacts apart.
