SO pissed off right now, Battery is dead once again. thats 6 batterys in 5 years (1 was a replacement for a dodgy one under warrenty)
Every winter the battery dies and wont hold a charge. its perfect all year long can be left for weeks at a time and still start on the button. but yesterday affter a week standing i went to start it and it strugled to start. so on the optimate it went. few hrs later (about 6ish) green light and back on the bike it went.
started fine, then today i go out and its dead as a dodo.
Charging system is all within spec, only drain is the imobaliser which is minamal and isnt a problem all year round.
but every focing year just affter Xmas the battry just dies and wont hold a charge grrrr
Mostly its gen yam ones i used but have tried others as well and all die at 1 yr old
I know
the bike is kept outside all year round and is ussed all year but is ussed randomly. IE can be ussed every day for a week or so then might be stood for 1-3 weeks when im broke and cant aford fuel, or could be ussed 1 or twice a week for months. its totaly random as its used for fun only and being unemployed meens it gets used when it had fuel lol
just a rant more than anything as there seems to be nothing actualy WRONG with the bike so it must be down to the use it gets. /shrug ARGGGGGG
