Well guys, it finally went out. My original battery from 2000, when the bike was bought new, finally died yesterday. I knew it was on borrowed time, but it had become an experiment after the 4 year mark. Only bad side is, I went out to go for a spin yesterday with the weather being so nice and couldn't go. Guess it's time to head to the Honda dealer in Marshall to get a new one. I can only hope to get a new one as good as the original.
Wow, I just got back from the Honda dealership, and 85 dollars lighter than before I went. I had no idea that batteries had gone up that much, didn't even come with a reach around. Anyway, after a good trinkle charge, I'll be back on the road. I can only hope for another 6 year battery life span.
Six years is a long time for a MC battery. Glad to hear you are up and running again.
sssshhhh be very quiet mine has the origal one still on it and it is a 94 but only has 20,000 miles on it
Too late, you jinxed it!!!!!! If your battery is 12 years old then I would toss that sucker like a bomb!! Hehehe and run dont walk to the battery store!!!
I usually get 4-6 years out of mine.
