Pointy Battery
I think my battery is on it's last legs.
 I parked up at 5.00pm on friday & this morning (monday) it would not start. I jump started it from my truck and rode to work. It started no problem at work on the way home. I'm now checking it. When the bike is running, the voltage is 14.6 volts. When not running, it started at 12.40 volts and is losing 0.1 volts per hour. It does have an alarm on it, but it never drew that much in the past. Am I correct in thinking that I need a YTX12-BS for the replacement?

Re: Pointy Battery
Yup replace it, anything under 12.5 is bad.
And yup that's right. One of those sir. |
