Hard a$$! Oh wait I thought I added you to the ignore list...wait canyou see this??!!
Can I see this?!!! Did I ignore myself??!!

To stay on topic.....I would invest in a battery tender....have had my scoot since Dec 08 and its been on a tender ever since with original battery........its showing signs of weakness but it still starts the old girl....oh yeah I rarely go a couple days without plugging it in.....hope this helps and safe travels!

mutt
 
two weeks should not be a problem unless you have wired something in to the bike that is not switched thru ignition, Enjoy your trip driving on the correct side of the road

Richard, I didn't ride mine for two weeks when I went to England!!!!
You still talk to me---------Richard---------RICHARD.....
Hmmmm,,,,,,, You think ya know a bloke

I did not do anything with my R3R when I went over, just rode it for an hour or two when I got back. But now I have a battery tender for winter.
But I did visit its birth place
 
mate living in melbourne and doing some travel for work has meant that my girl has sat unstarted for 6 weeks once. had no issue at all.
 
What is this winter you speak of?
 
Thank you Canberra - now that I got my originally expected razzing I now feel complete in life

For us in Southern California, "winter" is when the mountains get this strange white topping on them and we occasionally need to find a sweater, but not any reason to put away our rides!
 

Same here on the coast only a mere 1 1/2 hours away from Canberra it is usally at least 10 degrees Celsius warmer, rarely ride in anything more than a jacket over a T-shirt, oh and Kevlar or leather jeans of course
Still have memories of 20 years of riding in the Canberra winters, that's the only reason I also have warmer gear to put on for when I go up there or down to Philip Island in Vic get fairly cold down there with the wind coming of the Antarctic

Once per hour or so, my engine seems to lose its power by half, starts making extra noises and rattles, and pops and backfires until I turn it off
