Hey guys. I think I may have a problem with my battery.
When I turn the key over, the lights all come on and it goes through its start up sequence (all the little clicks and all) like it should. But when I go to start the bike, it tries to turn over but then stops and the bike resets. Now I'm not sure if it is a starter problem or the battery simply doesn't have enough juice to turn the engine over.
Let me remind you, I live in Chicago and it has been sitting in my garage for about 2 weeks since the last time I started it. It has also been in the 30's/20's which is the reason I have to believe it is the battery.
-I hooked up a battery charger to it at 10 amps for 1hr, nothing changed.
-I NOW have the same charger hooked up at 2 amps and I'm leaving it for about 5-10hrs.
I have Chicagoland Toys for Tots ride tomorrow morning. They are going to be about 5 presents short if I can't get my baby running
Please guys, any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
