On Sunday, it was pretty cold in the garage. Went to start the bike and it turned over like the battery was flat. Put the battery on a quick 30 min charge and it it started right up.
For the rest of the day the bike was fine.
I was all ready to buy a lithium battery but first took the lead battery in to be tested. Two places did a load test and found the battery to be fine. I had a chuckle when the one guy said the battery is strong enough to start a car. The look on his face when I said the bikes engine at 2300cc is bigger than most cars was priceless.
A local mechanic recommended the fix as per the screenshot. Cannot see how his fix would sort out the problem as that is more aimed at a running bike and not starting. Would the lithium battery not just sort it out?
