Hi Guys & Girls
Im having a few problems with my bike starting.
When i got the bike it started fine, however i wasnt insured so i had to park it in the garage. A few days later (4/5) i went to turn it over to keep the battery 'alive' and it woyldnt start.
When i pushed the engine start;The ABS light would come on and the engine problem light would flash (until i let go of the switch). I kept trying then the bike woukd struggle and the electrics would flash out.
I had the same problem with a car a few years back so im guessing its the battery
I managed to push start it (saturday) as i had insured it and wanted to take it out. And when it was finally up and running it would start fine aslong as it is within a few hours of riding.
The past 2 mornings where the bike has been left for 8hours or more it wont start right away.I get the same lights appearing. Then after leaving it for a few mins and trying a handfull of times it eventually starts.
Has anyone had any problems of the same sort?
Im thinking of getting a new battery, if that is the case can anyone reccomend a decent battery that wont empty the bank.
Thanks in adv.
