Like some of you I had a bad battery in my 650 which was replaced in August. Bought the bike in March of this year. I have a CTEK trickle charger which I have kept on the bike on an of since I haven't been able to ride for the month or so as the cold set in. We finally get a couple of nice days in St. Louis and the battery won't turn the engine over. I look down to the charger connection and can see it's flashing red so I now have a second battery that's gone bad?? I hooked it back up to the CTEK and it immediately go's to the third light (80%) but takes about 45 minutes to get to the 4th light which is supposed to be strong enough to start the bike. The CTEK has 7 total lights for a fully charged battery but I think it will take several hours to get back to that level. Do any of you think it could be anything else causing this or do you think I just have sme bad luck with batteries going on here??
thanks for any comments.
