Yeah, I replaced mine this year. If I could keep it on the tender all the time when parked, it was ok. Down here, I can't, and I hate getting stranded on the bike, as it's damn near impossible to push start this pig!

I bet I could make it work but it gets pretty weak if it sits more than a few days. Maybe I'll run to the shop this week and get one.

That is one nice thing about the 08, it had a somewhat reliable charging system. Not overly excessive for extra electrical stuff, but it could handle the stock bike easily. |

Model specific forums are generally better for such problems, and thankfully I know where to find those as well. That and having some decent mechanical background and ability. |

Tires and brakes already? I thought you only had like 1500 miles on it?
