The battery in this one is so bad that it drains all the power the alternator 
can produce...
It'll go about 5 miles before it quits. New battery is ordered and should be in 
today.
Which is good, I've been commuting with my wife's '89 Kawasaki 454 LTD which is 
REALLY small. I'm very saddle sore.

My first bike ('62 BMW R69S) had a magneto for ignition - didn't know
if the battery was good till you needed the head light -- kind of like
a Diesel MB, except that you can't kick start the MB.
