Bike Dead

[New GZ250]

Update, new battery did the job, bike seems to have more power too, just never had a bike battery get u going, drive it for two miles and the electrical system was 100% dead. Bike has 14k on it and running like new!

Just FYI- for the hundredth time on here. If you bought a new AGM battery, and practically all the batteries for this size bike are AGMs, it must be FULLY CHARGED (BY YOU) BEFORE FIRST USE, or the battery will prematurely fail and you will be back at the shop getting another one. The battery may start the bike a few times and will then crap out if you don't follow those instructions, That is straight from Yuasa and every other AGM manufacturer and from direct personal experience. You cannot rely on the guy in the battery shop or wherever you bought it from, saying just put it in and you're good to go. YOU must put it on a charger and bring it up to full charge before you use it for the first time.
