An update for all, I took the bike too Meredith harley yesterday. Spoke with the Service folks and the said they would check it for me. I went too move it into the service line and the battery was dead. This is after running the bike for over 60 miles. Needless too say they battery had a bad cell and they replaced it for no charge. I asked them if this was a common problem this year and the service manager said yes they have had a bunch of batteries that were new go bad in a very short time. So thank you all. Might be worth passing on too all of our buddies that have HD's if they start having the same problem.

Guess they cheaped-out with a new Chinese maker/supplier and screwed that up too. Pretty much par for the course with the MOCO these days it seems like.

Yeah. I took it out this spring and topped up the charge & took it to a place where they could check it with a load tester and the guy said it was fine. He too was impressed when I told him how old it it.
I still have one of the original Gates sealed batteries in an old fuel truck that we use at work and it's still goin' strong. It was bought new in the summer of 1989.
