Well despite the mild winter and being on my CTEK charger every couple of weeks my 2015 bikes battery has died. I got Pos II on the ignition but nowhere near enough power to start the engine. Just clicks.

What do you recommend as a more robust replacement to the stock part?

Cheers

Tony

I'd have a look at lithium. Lighter and smaller and dosent loose power over time. JJH
