Battery
 \\;I think I need a new battery. Sometimes when I hit the brake the radio loses power \\;and comes back on after I have stopped for a few seconds. I am gonna be taking a trip to Michigan for a week or so the week after next. Think I should just pick up a battery from the dealer or someplace else? Opinions?
with a fuel injection bike with a computer it won't run with a weak battery. My wife found out the hard way last weekend her's was 4 years old.

 \\;I think you have a bad ground or loose connection in your radio,not a battery problem. If you get 12.5v across the battery and 13.5-14v with the engine running the battery's fine. Check the radio wiring.
 \\;When time to replace the batter, I'd stick with the OEM,got one in my Softail for 7 yrs and its still good to go.
