This battery was new in January 2012 and when I'm not riding it I have it on an Optimate III and that's not given any warnings.
I did have to bump start it when I was on holiday at the start of the month, but I thought that was because I left it switched on with the headlamp on whilst I was getting off and locking it up etc.
A similar thing happened a few weeks ago when I was up in London, but that time I figured it was because I'd done a few start-stops-restart which it's never liked.
Both times I rode it for a while in low gear and with the revs up to recharge the battery and it seemed to be ok after.
Additionally, when the rear light had dimmed (it's an LED replacement), the (incandescent) headlight was still ok, I'd have thought that it would be the other way around.
