Get a new battery, look in your haynes manual for the type. should be along the lines of YTX12A-BS. or its written on the side. when you go to buy one make sure its the precise number for your bike. people like to palm you off with'' oh it should fit'' and you get it home after paying 40 quid and find its too tall. which has happened to both me and im indoors. If you have an alarm, these drain them and if you do short journeys a lot like me. I see you have posted on the other thread about my bike, and thats a whole load of problems to deal with later when you've ruled out the battery
Hope this is helpful
