It's been a month since I had the Nighthawk out so I figured I'd take her to work. It was a little chilly this morning so I figured it would be tough being her going. After about 30 seconds of cranking the starter speed turning it over I figured the battery was low.  I was able to bump start it

Maybe not bad yet! This sounds like the battery needs to charge. When the bikes sit at idle, the alternator isn't charging, it is running off the battery. So when you had it warming up, it was draining the battery. Put a charger on it or drive it around for a while and you should be better. On

If it is not a sealed battery you might want to check the acid level. I got about 1 year extra on battery that was just low on acid, by refilling it with distilled water. Javier. On Tue, Sep 17, 2013 at 10:35 AM, mike21...@aol.com wrote: Wow Allen, I went out to try it again and when I turn on

If you were going to do that - you could get a small trailer that already meets regulations and simply mount the pickup toolbox to it. Probably less engineering involved - although you would probably want to put a swivel hitch on the trailer to allow the bike to lean. Just a thought.

If the battery was that low then it is doubtful it will revive with adding water. You have to keep an eye on wet cell batteries when on a charger as they will boil off the acid. I hope you got an AGM, they are so much nicer. Sent via BlackBerry by ATT -Original Message- From:
