Is my battery fooked?
 
There are a couple of symptoms.

My rear (red) light dims when the indicators flash, both with engine running and not.

My heated grips arn't working, but I suspect that it is the fault of the connectors.

I've not not had any problems starting the bike though! :? I can't find my multimeter so I can't give any voltage figures, but I did about 20 miles today before my alarm started mucking about.

Thanks in advance!

Cheers mate, I'll ask Joe for his as I'm seeing him on Tuesday

Joe mentioned that it might be a bad earth. Any thoughts?

I know that on the TL forums they are always raving about adding extra earth to give more power. Not sure about the charging though.

Not the connectors. I polished them and rubbed them with graphite and still nothing. :(

Ok, the battery has been charged and is fine. But My alarm and grips are still fooked! :cry:
