  • Looks like I need a new battery, rode 20 odd miles at motorway pace on Saturday, spent a morning in the library, then went to ride home and it took a little coaxing to get going.
    Same ride home, dropped bike off at the garage for an MOT, passed, picked it up and it wouldn't start, had to be jumped.

    Are all batteries equal?

    My usage of the bike has changed from a daily commuter to occasional use, which has probably helped the deterioration.
    Sadly my garage isn't powered so optimate is out, and I don't really want to take the battery out all the time. It's not going to be parked for the winter, I do intend to use it fairly often.

  • You might be able to bring your battery back from the dead with a deep charge. Worth a go.

    I just buy yuasa from Halfords as I’ve trade card. If you find you model I can check what trade price is?
