I have a 2006 Ultra Classic which will not crakn. I haven't ridden the bike since Nov 4 due to weather, etc. Running fine then. I have had a trickle charler on it continuously since then which indicates the battery is charger. Went to crank it today for a ride and it's completely dead regardless that the charder indicated good to go. I had a new battery installed in 2021. I'm sure you can't use a car charger or even jump it off either. What should I do? Hate to be so dumb but I've always been a rider and not a mechanic.

 

Take out the battery and have CHARGED (not trickle/tender), then have it load tested.
Ya gotta start there!

 

No reason you can`t jump it.
I rather suspect your battery is toast

 

Thanks for the quick response. Didn't want to buy a new battery but it might come to that. We'll see.

 

When you switch the ignition on, does the headlight come on nice and bright?

 

Thanks for your responsw!

 

Any lights come on?
Kill switch in off position?
Security on?
Fuses good?
Battery connections good? Probably need to be cleaned up anyway.

Please report back.

 

This above highlighted...Depending on how long battery was left in a discharged state, it very well may be toast and unchargable...it could still show green on the charger and still be bad...have it load tested...

 

In neutral, jiffy stand sensor?

 

No sensor on 06 touring.
