So i took my bike out this past saturday and everything was fine. But i tried to crank it up today and nothing happened. I thought it was the gas so I put a gallon of gas in it. It acts like it wasnt to turn over but cant get that far. Its a winding sound like when a car battery is dead, so im thinking its probly the same on the motorcycle. Does anybody out there have any ideas???

I did connect LED body lights to my battery under the seat would that be something that could drain the battery even though they do not stay on all the time only when I turn them on.

 

try jumping it with a car battery (car engine not running) if it cranks and starts, then you got a weak battery.....if your battery is old 3plus years, then maybe its time to change it......if its new then something is draining your battery......i would disconnect the led lights and go for a ride and see if the battery keeps its charge...borrow a battery tester..

 

Question: are your LEDs on a remote?

The remote receiver is a constant draw on the battery. Shouldn't be much of a draw but that also depends on the quality of the remote system. After installing my 1st LED kit, my battery would drain in 3-5 days if she wasn't ridden. Temp solution was to ride more. More permanent workaround was to connect them to a toggle switch on the dash I had disconnected.

Ultimate solution was to get a better LED kit with remote

 

Sounds like a dead battery. Try charging it to see if it will start. These tiny batteries only last for a few years. They're definitely not as good as regular car batteries.

 

Yes the leds are connected to a remote. But I will try and charge/jump the battery tomorrow. Ill let yall know it turns out.

 

well i went and bought a battery charger after i got off work and indeed that was the problem and it even comes with clips that i can leave connected to my battery. thanks for all tha help
