So, my bike won't start, I've made a video of it, listen to the sound of that.
I've posted my question already on various fb pages
and consensus is, replace the battery. 
I now nothing about this, because this would be my first ever faulty battery on a motorcycle..
I thought it was my starter thats broken and not the battery, since all other electrical stuf works and the noise came from the relays behind the left cover.
But a faulty battery can still make all kinds of electrical stuff work, except cranking the bike, it seems.
And that sound is supposedly a relay protecting the starter from 'overcranking' (dunno how to translate that one)
This shows how much I know about it.
But I had to ask itbhere as well, are we all in consent as well that its a bad battery?
FYI, the bike is owned by myself since Dec '15, second owner.
It had 2K on the clock (thats km) and now has around 21K.
