    Bad battery, or rectifier/regulator ???

    I hate to add another post to the subject of the charging system, but I've checked out the database ,and did a keyword search. I could not find any specific answers to the questions I have. So here goes....... I've got a 680 Odessey battery in the bike. It's only been in for 4 years, but...

    I was checking the battery levels....

    Because it's been hot I thought it would be a good idea to check the levels in my standard-type battery. I know, I know, but the last battery left me stranded so I had to get what was available and that was this standard type battery. With my little clutch problem this week, the bike was VERY...

    Jump start V Max battery by car battery?

    Have a decent battery now but just wondering if it died could I hook up to a car battery and jump start it or would it cause problems. I have an 2006 V Max.

    Dead battery, will it recover?

    OK, like a dipshit I left the ignition turned on on the bike over 2 days. Of course the battery is dead. I was talking to a friend about what an idiot i was. He told me most likely the battery is toast. even if I charge it. I dont have a charger now. I currently use a "Battery Minder Plus"...

    VMAX Charge Tank (battery)

    With all of the variety in AGM Batteries. Has anyone had experience with these? I guess it would be cool to have a VMAX battery in our Vmax motorcycles. http://www.vmaxchargetank.com/motorcycles.html

    Battery draining excessively?

    Hi all: Here's my situation: 1) Brand-frickin'-new Odyssey PC680 2) Brand-new Odyssey charger 3) Brand-new R/R from Python (updated for 1996-2007 Maxes). After fully charging on charger, bike starts up just fine. Rode the bike or a while, then shut it down. At that point, I check...

    Bad battery? You tell me...

    Hi all: My '89 Max won't start. Put in a new updated starter motor, have a 1.5 year old Odyssey PC680 battery, which I use a Battery Tender trickle charger on. She barely turns over. A couple of backfires, that's it, then battery dies. Jump started her, and read voltage. Around 14 volts...

    Battery keeps dying

    So I think this may be a no brainer, but I'm no good with electrical so it couldn't hurt to ask. My bike is forced to sit outside until we buy a house with a garage (SOON hopefully) and nights here drop down into the 40s. I have to park the bike on our patio in order to be able to charge it, and...

    Dead battery

    I went out this morning and for South Florida it was a bit cool out, being 37F. I jumped into my truck, turned the key and only got a few revolutions and then click, click, click.

    battery wars

    I searched through the mods list and couldn't find a definitive answer as to what battery wins the best choice award. I have a pc 680, its 6 years old and on its way out.

    Old Skool Battery

    Battery has been "iffy" lately, and yesterday it pooped out on me. I don't have time to wait to order a battery to get to the Deal's Gap gathering this weekend, I just bought an old-fashioned, have-to-maintain-it battery (that I could afford). This one is funny. They all bubble when you put...
