battery

Heya guys. Been having an issue now for a little while in which my idle is periodically rough for seemingly no reason, the bike is having a harder and harder time starting, and finally - it's died on me twice in the last two days, after slow bouts in traffic. Once it's running and I'm moving...

I posted before with the 04 fz6 I'm thinking I have a weak spark/electrical issue. Bike won't run, the only times I've had it run are when I installed a brand new battery ( about a month ago ) and when I've replaced the starter relay ( 3 days ago ) both times when it's ran its only stayed on...

Here is the problem I had earlier with my bike. I was away for a month so my bike was just sitting in my apartment complex. Once I was back, I started the bike which started it in two tries.I thought bike is fine no issues with bike. I go to my bike after 2 weeks and the bike would not start. It...

Hello Guys, I left my battery plugged, before my 3 week trip and no trickle charger (didn't receive the expected mail, BT JR). Now the battery is down, and left it on BT JR from Tuesday morning 8am EDT, and I still see the solid red on the charger, but I don't see the ignition turning on. Can I...

I've noticed some replacement batteries have only 170 CCamps while the Yuasa OEM has 220 CCamps. Anybody riding around on a 170 CCamp battery? Geesh, I think I'll spend the extra for Yuasa since it's 220 CCamps. Lots more expensive, though.

Ok wonderful guys and gals of the forum i need some assistance. I had to take out my battery to charge it up the other day and of course lost one of my nuts into the nowhere. On a good note was afraid my battery was dead but after being on the tender for a few days seems to be holding a charge...

2006 FZ6, year old battery stored for the winter on a battery tender. Took it out once the weather got nice, started up just like normal even after sitting for 3 months. Rode about 10 minutes and stopped at a place for 5 minutes. Tried to start her up, hear fuel pump prime once I turn the key on...

Hey guys, does anyone know the size of the battery cover bolts, I went to put in a new battery and the previous owner must of lost them. It's a 2007. Thanks!

I cant believe I found the battery under the tank, Went to put a charger on it for the cold winter. Anyone put it under the seat?? doesn't look too hard.

Hi, Is there an adapter to assist in adding additional connectors to the battery terminals? I find that I cant add more than two devices to the battery terminal (heated gear, tender, usb charger) as the terminal screws are too short and its a pain to get to. Thanks

Hello Gurus, I bought a 2008 fz6 with 11,800mi (19000 km) now it has 13,170mi (21200 km) Recently my battery died, the mechanics recommendation was change it an also changed stator and the regulator assy . But now, a strange situation comes in, when riding and suddenly stop accelerating...

I have a 2006 Yaris 1.3 gasoline car that has done 70k km so far, and served well for 10 years until this morning. When i turn the key, there is no crank. Clutch safety switch works fine. Battery is like new condition, and seems full. Dashboard seems fully working and other electrical...

Hi - was wondering if anyone ever tried maintaining 2 batteries at once using a single battery tender? I have 2 car batteries each with at least 2 to 3 years of life left. I want to keep them sharp in case I need them for my generator. Could I hook up jumper wires from one battery to the other...

Finally got some heated gloves to keep me riding into the winter and today was the first sub 40F weather so I had my heated jacket, gloves and grips going. Seems like after I stopped for gas my bike was a little sluggish to start and my grips wouldn't turn on due to the battery being near dead...

Hey, I just bought a 2006 FZ6 with 12,000 miles on it. However, after about a week of riding it I semi-frequently stall as I'm stopping at a light or a traffic signal. From reading around this would seem to be a TPS issue. But the bike also sometimes has a problem starting up, the starter will...

the left bolt on my battery cover just spins in place. it's about a 1/4 inch unscrewed and i can't tighten or loosen it. i think the threads may have come loose from whatever is holding it in place, and it is spinning with the bolt. i've tried applying leverage to the bolt from below while...

2005 FZ6 with 34,000 Miles Dead Hi all, I have a 2005 FZ6 with 34,000 on it. I love the bike and have never had a bit of trouble with it until a couple of days ago. I really get lost with electrical issues and hope you can help. A couple of days ago I went to start the bike. I turned the...

Cage battery was telling signs of loosing ground these past few days (cranks maybe a bit slower and is normal the next day) and then today was the Clicker of death! It made an attempt and promptly went to the CLICK CLICK CLICK stage!Cage batt off state at 12.9V and cranking it dipped to 6.0V...

Good day friends, I have an issue I want to run by you. I have a 05' fz6, that I bought 18 months ago. Since then I haven't had any issues with it. It always starts, and the previous owner also confirms he never had any problems. Even after 6 months of storage it started on the first crank...

Yesterday I had a strange occurance on the way home. I made a stop on the way and as I was leaving, my bike would not start. The engine was relatively hot (+/-208F) and everything else was normal. The starter rolled slowly but would not start the engine. I tried roll starting it without...
