NO, it isn't going back in but if the plates in it are cooked it could indicate a problem with my charging system. Maybe it's over kill but I want the battery to be fully charged when it's load tested to make sure I'm getting a good reading. That's all. Regardless whether it's good or bad, it's not going back in the bike.

Which is the right thing to do...too many people make assumptions when they have charging issues and that wastes money.
