Battery Time ?
Yesterday I replaced the battery. It turns out the battery that was in the bike was an almost 7 year old Deka, 400 CCA. Replaced it with a new Yuasa GYZ32HL 500 CCA. OMG, what a difference! It spun the 110 over like nothing, and the bike started instantly! The old Deka would still start the bike, but just barely. That said, I would say that the Deka did it's job, being almost 7 years old, not too shabby.

Well finally put the new battery in , the old one was off the tender since the 18th , finally dropped down to 12.3 vdc , still cranked the bike over and started , the new one seems a little better at cranking , keep to old one for a friend in need I suppose.
At 12.4 the battery would not even crank my 103 .. The New Deka was 12.9 out of the box and cranks like nobody's business ..
