I picked up my bike from my buddies garage where it was all winter. Before putting it in I had some issues with it not starting when cold. I asked him to charge it before I got it but the alarm kept going off meaning it had gone completely dead. I had him pull the alarm and charge it up and he said it was holding 12v. I picked it up and rode 40 minutes on the highway before getting 6 blocks from where I was going and it died at a light and wouldn't restart. I pushed it a few blocks until it was slightly downhill and bump started it.
I have been reading the thread below and need to trouble shoot to make sure its just the battery but that being said I probably need a new one. Question is what is the best or most reliable battery I can replace it with. I now live in the city and so often do short rides with lots of stop and go traffic and want to use my alarm often if possible.
Any advice or input is greatly appreciated so I can get this ordered asap.
Thanks in advance.
