Mine's a 2011 1200GS TU (Triple Black and lovely), 38,000 miles and runs like a Swiss watch. However when starting it seems to crank really slooooowly. Always starts first time, but it seems deathly slow to turn over. It lives on an Optimate constantly. Changed the battery a year ago, thought it was better for a while but now back to being dead slow. Sometimes the heated grips don't work until I stop and restart the engine - I know the management unit will shut them off if there's not enough charge, so makes me wonder if there is a charging issue. Low charge light and engine-shaped warning icon often come on in the LCD display for a second after starting, not too worried about that really, goes out after literally a second or two. But...it always starts despite turing over slowly! Bamboozled. Perhaps there isn't an issue at all. Half wondering if its a starter motor fault, I had one go bad on my 1100GS years ago, it murdered batteries annually. Any thoughts? Thanks.
