I ordered a AGM battery, its not that expensive in any case ( about 100 dollars whit VAT and delivery) and I want the best! And soon a trickle charger too?
First I want to know if the bike starts.. if not there are somthing els that broken, and first then its time to call a local MC workshop for maintenance.
Zepp, you will definitely want the trickle charger, as it makes batteries last much longer! I used to have batteries only last 2 years or so on my bikes, but since I got the charger, I'm not having any problems with battery longevity. Extremely hot or cold climates both kill batteries, you won't regret having a trickle charger.

I bout my a Ctek MXS3,8, mainly becuse they provided both clamps and on the batterey fixed easy to conect plug!
Just plug in every time, then its probably gonna to be used more?
And today I got my new AGM battery, tested the trickle charger on it, it lights upp, it talks to my new battery anyhow!
Soo, soon or at least next wekend I gonna try to start the bike!

At last I got the new AGM battery in my bike, it was a struggle!
Not the battery but to get the sadle back in place.. my sadle bags is in the way of my seeing!
In any case, it started up as it should, and I got my trickle charger conections to the battery anyhow.. some sort anyway.
It was thight!
This is not a thing I like to do every year, lets hope that my battery gonna last at least 5 years?
