Might want to pull the spark plugs and see if it spins over OK. If so, your suspected weak starter/solenoid is probably correct. It's always a good idea to check and clean your grounds and connections. Also, even though you believe the battery is good I would hook up a multi-meter set on 20 volts and see what happens to the reading when you hit the starter. If it dives down to single digit voltage you have a battery or some sort of connection problem. Sometimes a battery can seem OK but have a bum cell and won't have enough cranking amps to turn the engine over.
