hi all, apologies for the delay, wasn't trying to avoid you - honest!
Still not entirely sure what's gone on.
Although not ridden as much as I'd've like over the past few months, over the past month alone I must've covered about 400 miles, and good miles too, 45-50 miles a trip on the back roads so plenty of revs going on.
On Tuesday it was a typical 45 mile back road ride to work plus a 10 mile town ride.
When I got to the bike, about 9 hrs later, and turned the key there was absolutely nothing, just deadness, no lights, no ignition, no noise, nothing.
Tried wriggling, pulling and moving everything I could (on the bike that is!) but still nothing.
Tried a little jump start and got the instrumentation flashing up so managed to get a jump start and started first time.
Was getting a bit late by now and had started raining so took the motorway home (about 45 mins) and put it on the trickle charge which was showing high amber before green (charged)?
Now I can't remember the bike being in parking light mode and I'm certain that I'd've noticed when I left the bike as you give it the normal, 'one last look before I leave it for the day' kinda thing, that the lights were on?
I've always got the bike on trickle charge over the winter months and whilst has been disconnected for some months now so pretty sure battery is in good condition, and was showing a good amount of charge. when I got home so obviously it's charging ok but if the battery was dead would 45 mins be enough to fully charge it.
I'm really hoping it's all my own fault for possibly leaving parking lights on ?
