New battery or possibly a new rec/reg then, as you use your bike every day don't you Shona? So the battery should be charged up, or did it take a long time to catch?

I know the reason, my boyfriend put keys in, turned them and left the lights on... but didnt start it.
about 3-4mins later I try to start it and no such luck.


Although, is it bad that it died after the lights being on for 3-4mins?

Naughty silly boyfriend, perhaps it's his sneaky way of saying you need to lose a few pounds and exercise!

The batteries on Sv's are a bit marginal and any drain, especially if you have a both headlight on model could cause that. Definately worth keeping an eye on though obviously.

Not having anything useful to say has never stopped me posting It's more about getting involved, both on here and out on the road.
