New battery installed this moaning. Charge rates same as with old battery. Threw caution to the wind and went out for a ride this afternoon. Did 170 miles, with a couple of engine stops (wee and petrol). Bike still started on the button when I got home. I reckon 170 miles with headlight on should have drained the battery if it wasn't charging adequately.
Anyway, I haven't learned my lesson - the new battery cost £21.
