For the last two days my bike doesn't want to turn over in the morning and when I come out of work. It sounds like the battery is dead and it'll start fairly easy on bump in second gear. Two weeks ago I changed the front indies and its been running ok since then and now all of sudden this happens. Coincidence? Anything else I should look out for?

Could be the regulator.
They have a habit of giving up at inopportune moments. |

Mine used to do this quite a lot because i didnt use it because i didnt have a licence to ride mine. My alarm used to drain it. Do you leave it and not use it say over weekends? Have you left the parking lights on maybe?

hmm sounds bit dodgy, when i had this problem i bought a optimiser from HG for 25 ish squid. Still if you dont know what is causing the problems you may wanna check everything out or take it to a garage. I took the battery to halfords to have it checked for dead cells.
