I just pulled the bike out...Jump started it and rode it for 10 minutes thru the neighborhood...

Battery was dead once I turned it off...I gotta get a tender.

But it felt nice to be back on it even if it was dark and cold.

If you go for a nice 20 mile ride that battery should be good to go!

My bike has only been out to make sure the replacement header doesn't leak. I was lucky to get it far enough out of the garage to run it. Still two feet of snow on the ground around here.

I've never had a problem with the battery either... Original battery still in it, and it's never seen a charger. Still starts first try after sitting for months.
