Hey, everyone. Im new to riding and to the forum. I've been experiencing a problem lately. I have a 2003 CBR F4i, it has about 4.000 miles on it, and I just started having a problem. I'll ride it, turn it off, go to start it, and its dead. I've connected it to a tender, and then been able to ride it... and the same problem happens. But then after that happend twice, its been fine ever sense. I went and bought a new battery, but have not installed it yet, does anyone have any ideas?

Let me know, thanks!

 

sounds like something is about to go...
you need to do a tests of your battery and then your regulator to make sure
1. the battery has enough juice to start the bike and is not leaking too much.
2. the regulator is properly converting juice from the alternator to AC (or was it DC) to charge the battery.
3. the alternator is providing juice to the regulator for converting to feed the battery.
