Do you all use a battery trickler between rides ?
Following my recent post about my bike being hard to start I started using my tickler between rides, I only ride on weekends (1-2 days depending on weather at what my wife has planned for me).
Joking aside following my ride yesterday I just went to connect my bike onto my trickler I noticed that the my optimate read less than 50% charge. Since im at nearly 18 K KM I've decided to change my plugs and air filter while its at the garage looks like the battery is shot so I will probably be installing a new one. I will ask the mechanic to check the charging system I hope this issue is not more than a shot battery that doesn't keep its charge ?
