it has one of those remote charger leads with it - which is ideal for my BMW cos the battery is in the false tank which is grief to get to

Have you still got the old battery? Check the water levels. My sealed 'non servicible' battery was instantly fixed with the addition of the correct water levels

Additionally, I can quite easily make you a waterproof remote charging port on the bike where ever you need on the bike (within sensible reason)

yea - the battery is fucked really - last time i took it out - november i topped up and charged the battery overnight - plugged it in and it turned over a few times but then died - i ended up putting my ktm battery on it

see thing is also on the BMW the lights are always on (no off switch) and the computer needs to kick in (all dash lights up and closes down 1-by1)- and fuel injection and stuff - so as soon as you turn the key its sucking from the battery

there are also a few common problems with tick over - all to do with voltage and shit ....

so time for a new battery anyway

I got one of these a few years ago , been using it on a little tractor - always used to go flat over winter etc - not any more  Very Happy .

Not sure if they a big seller in Wales though , what with the lack of sun .
