Bike Batteries

I read a couple of times, someone saying they better charge the Battery
on the Bike? I think Brain said ''I better go charge the
Shadow''....hmmm?
<>If ya ride about once a week, won't that keep it up to ''snuff''? <> I
have two Bikes, and I start em up atleast once a week if I don't ride
em'. (?) ain't had any low batteries yet. ya'll?

That's my problem too. It takes so much juice to crank mine, that if
it doesn't crank right away on a cold engine, I'll easily run down the
battery trying. That's why I start off with a "hot" battery to make
sure.

On a warmed engine, it's not a problem for me...I can almost start it
with a flashlight battery.

 

It really depends on the type of battery and the bike it's on. I know
people with gel batteries that never have put a charger to them and
let them sit for months at a time without any problems. Then others
almost have to use a welder to jump start theirs every morning. I'm
somewhere in the middle I guess.
