Buy a battery

And a manual!

And welcome back. How's Mrs Jim getting on with the bike by the way? Mrs Tiger was asking after her the other day as we trawled the bike shops.

Wait for me at Kinross and you'll be there a long time! I'll be in the land of garlic and smelly cheese.

Stick the meter on the battery to check the voltage before you start the bike.. usually about 12- 12.5 ish, after you start her up the voltage should rise to 13.5- 13.8 ish. If the voltage does not rise the alternator has a gremlin installed.. If it does rise yer battery's fooked
