Having trouble starting hammerhead 150ss. Turn key and have power, lights work, but engine won't turn over. Jumping the solenoid with the key turned on will start buggy. What can I look for?

Does it have a brake safety switch. The Yerfs were bad about them going bad and you could just by pass them.

No. I does have a kill switch though and I disconnected it but that didn't help either.

sounds like a bad solenoid
have you check the fuse in electrical box, could be blown.
the two little wires coming off solenoid track them down to were they plug together in electrical box make sure they are plug together and making contact.
i'm not sure how your key switch is wired to tell you how to see if it is bad,maybe some else will know. don't want you to short out your cdi.
