Well I wish there was something that told me exactly what it was. I think still I have a draw somewhere but what's weird is that it drove fine this Sunday for about 200 miles then Monday came to go to work and bike just clicked over. And it never showed me a sign that the battery had any issues

 

Not familiar with AGMs, but regular MC batteries require about 10 hours on slow charge after installing the acid. Was it at max charge before installing on the bike, cuz the bike's charging system won't get it there. Also, to check it's output, you gotta crank that sucka way up, it won't read squat at idle.

 

We are slow charging it all night then will take it back to Orilleys later on to check it. Other than that still chasing it around

 

Battery probably has a bad cell. Take back and get a new one. I had same problem last year. Dealer replaced under warranty. Good to go since.

 

You need to test your stator, not saying you couldn't have gotten a bad battery, but sounds like stator issues. That's where I would start. You could put the battery in another bike crank it up, then stick the tester on it and see where volts sit. Should hover around 13-14V with a new, fully charged battery. If it gave you 200 mi this past weekend, that sounds like you solely ran off battery and the bike didn't charge it at all. This is a good way to destroy a good battery.

 

Yes, check your stator output and make sure your voltage regulator is well grounded at it's front mounting bracket. Sounds to me you slowly ran the battery down as Kontakerous states.

The trouble with issues like this is, until you test things with a meter it's hard to know whats really going on. If Orielly will warranty the battery I'd get a replacement to start, fully charge it before you put it in, even AGM's should be fully charged 1st . I would also check your stator outputs to make SURE it's charging, it kinda sounds like a stator to me too , 11vdc bike running is below acceptable.

 

Crank the bike and set the throttle to a "fast" idle (1500-2000 rpm).
Measure the voltage with a digital meter from the + battery post to ground.
You should read between 13.5 - 14.8 DC volts.
Anything less than 13.5 VDC means you likely have a bad regulator, stator, or both.

With the bike turned off, a full battery should measure at least 12.7 volts. A battery that measures 12 volts or less is dead.

If you don't have a digital voltmeter, go buy one. You can find an adequate one at Home Depot, Lowes, etc for ~$30.00.
