Hi All,
It's been a while since I replied on this thread but i went out and got myself a voltmeter. I charged the battery using a wall charger and measured the voltage every day for a week or so. It held steady at 12.5v for over a week. I put it back on the bike and measured the voltage again with the engine off. Still 12.5v. I started the engine, waited a short while and measured again, now it was 13.5v. So, everything was looking good.
However, a week later I came to start the bike and it was flat again. Now the battery is off the bike again and only showing 10.1 volts, so something has flattened it. Can anyone tell me how I use my multimeter to test where the fault/short is? I don't know where to start.
Any help gratefully received.
Thanks, Adam.
