Starting issues
Hello fellow riders. My bike has a brand new battery. I'll take it out, ride for a while (about 30 mins) and stop. (Gas, bar, whatever) I go to start my bike and--click, click, click. I've got to jump start it to get it going. Sometimes the jump is instant and sometimes I have to let it sit on charger for a few. Took battery to have it load tested and results were like a brand new battery. Fully charged. What are my options? What could it be?
Thanks in advance. ~L~
Oh yeah, it's a 99 Dyna SuoerGlide FXD.

Look at the battery ground cable where it connects the the frame. If it's loose or dirty it can give you intermittent starting issues. And check the cables at the battery terminals. They need to sit flat against the posts, and sometimes a flat washer is needed.

This. Sounds like a bad ground.
