Load test your battery and double check your connections (grounds can cause a real problem) before you go too deep.

Automotive/motorcycle shops have a unit that places a high current load (low resistance circuit) on your battery to see if it can handle it. It specifically pertains and/or simulates the starting circuit as it's a high current load as well.
