OK. Been cold ( in L-ville, Ky. area for a week or so now), so I started my cycle a week ago Sat. Started right up and ran it for just 30 seconds ( I ride most days). Due to Winter weather....didn't ride it all week and went to start it Sat. and all i got was lights worked full power but cycle just turned over & never would kick in. Thought it most likely was the battery, but cycle gear load tested it & it reads over 10.something amps & only drops about .3 amps with a load. They said 330 day old Scorpion battery is fine.
OK....so question:
1)...Put a charge on the battery last night and read something like 4 amps and down to about 2 this morning. I am told going lower is a good thing....meaning it is taking a charge.
2) All other things being equal...and the fact that lights work fully & I rode 18,000 miles this year without a hickup until now....what would next steps be after taking a deep breath, having 1 beer & thinking it would have been nice to be able to ride around the neighborhood from 11:59-12:01
THANKS and HAPPY NEW YEAR to all.
As of 12:01....we can consider it a new year and look forward to all the get togethers & special times ahead.
