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 my 83 650 NH it is: pull the side covers (by hand) and four bolts to pull

So the other day I was moving my bike out of the garage and putting it on the

Hi Kurt,
Yup - I will post some pics maybe next week or so. I pulled the bike apart
again and am planning to clean up the brackets some more. They are really just
for 90 degree bends that get bolts on both sides. I had to use a spacer on the
rear brackets.
It works great and is solid.

Usually eBay or Craigslist.
