About a 4-6 weeks ago i had to buy a new battery and trickle charger because the bike sat for 9 months and wouldn't start. I plug the bike in everyday after riding it. Today i was out to the DR.'s and the bike was dead. I am asking everyone, 'PLEASE HELP AND EXPLAIN THE CHARGING SYSTEM". Why is this happening. I know on a car the alternator is charged by the belt, on a motorcycle how does it work. Any info would help. If and when i charge it it starts and i go wherever, if i shut the bike of it wont start, i would have to jump it again. "HELP."
