You say the voltage is getting to the starter when the key is in the start position. But how much voltage? If it's not a full 12V it isn't enough to pull the solenoid in for a good solid bridge to the windings. To test, be sure you are in Neutral and have the hand brake on. then put the key in run and use a jumper from +12v to the 1/4" plug tab on the back of the starter. If I remember correctly, It's a yellow wire (possibly Brown). If it starts you have narrowed the problem to somewhere between the Ign. switch and the solenoid. (remember that there is a neutral saftey switch in the line) and on 900's if your heat shield on the Cat converter is bad it can cause "mucho heat" and some melted wires in the vicinity of the wiring harness near the ignition and shifter. I once had an 82 900 with considerable repairs done in that area.
