  • Yep. Showing 12.96 on the meter. However, when the trickle charger is in, it keeps giving a fault reading.

  • Take battery out and give it a tumble and shake. If its a wet plate battery lead acid. They like having the acid inside moved around a bit, might have a faulty plate (not fixable as it'll be sealed).
    Try leaving multi meter on it (better with an analogue one) and watch it while your eating your dinner/beer o clock.
    Have seen terminals crack internally, so if you wiggle it really hard you might see your voltage drop

  • Did as you advised and all was fine, so decided to track the loom. It was the loom. Frayed wires that are too close to the frame and snorkel, so I imagine it was all the vibrating and movement that eroded the casing.
    All good now and bike is happy as larry.

    @jambon Thanks for the heads up. Needing some gauntlets after losing mine. might head up there this week.
