I took my bike out this morning, got all ready to ride, knowing I was going to have to let it warm up since it has been so cold. I turned on the fuel on, and got ready to go. I put it in neutral, turned on the run button, pulling in the clutch, hit the start button and.....it coughed and then clicked.
Now anyone that knows anything about cars knows that the clicking sound is a horrible, horrible sound. Well it is the same for bikes. My battery was dead. So I had to take off the back seat and then my seat to get to the battery. We tried to jump it but no luck. Called Harley and to get a new battery, get it taken in, and installed. $128.00. The battery is smaller than the seat on my bike and it costs $99.95. So now I have to figure out how to get it there so that they can put the battery in. I asked them how easy it would be to do but because of my bike, well....of course it is one of the harder ones with the negative hook up right down in the middle of a mass of wires. I guess I am just going to pay Harley to fix it because if anything is wrong then I know they will back their work.
My riding season is running down and I am thinking it just got much, MUCH shorter. -sighs- Dang it.
One day I am going to learn how to put pictures in here so that I can put in a pic of my bike. :-) See you guys tomorrow night.
