With the OEM YUASA battery which has been in the rocket for 2 years the charge wouldn't hold while riding, so after maybe 6-8 rides it wouldn't start the bike so I charged it with a battery charger. Then after 2 cycles of 6-8 rides it would only last a couple of rides after wall charging it. I ordered & installed a replacement battery, non-Yuasa. With the brand new battery after a few rides it wouldn't turn over the engine as well but this time it sounded like the starter didn't get enough juice to even begin to turn over. With the new battery, and the engine starter button not making the usual starting sounds, the clock would reset as well when the bike was turned on...
The battery charger I use has a diagnostic mode and it shows the new battery as new and the YUASA battery as still good.
Maybe there are more than one electrical gremlins in play? Any ideas? Thanks!
