always hard to start (she breathes fire and demands miles as a sacrifice)solved

Is it better to measure if its charging using ohms?


It will bump start with a flat battery, and quite easily too with these bikes.
I'd guess a good battery with no load should read at least around the 12.8 volts mark, and when charging with engine running will go above 14 volts.
Cold weather, age and sitting idle without a regular charge can all affect battery life span.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
