Hey guys, ive been reading through some of the posts and have aseen alot of topics concerning battery life. When i bought my cbr a couple weeks ago it was obviously used cuz its 96 and had alittle wear and tear on it but nothing major. THe guy said with anew battery it should be fine.They charged it up before i bought it and it ran fine for a couple days (i just started it and let it run cuz weather is too cold and bad to take it riding). Then it died so i charged it and again it ran fine for a couple days now its dead again. The lights work but as soon as i try to start it everything cuts out. From what ive gathered it seems like theres some sort of issue with this kinda bike basically devouring batteries and bateery llife never being what it should be. Im not going to get a new battery until after the winter but what should I look for and how can i make sure i get the mso tout of the battery that i can. Is this something thats gonna be a real issue for the time i own this bike?
