I got them to start the bike with their charger and I was on my way.
About half way home when I stopped at a red light she died again. So I pushed her onto a side street with a small hill and jump started it, it was my first and so then I was happy but as soon as I got down around 1500 rpm, she stalled again and this time she didn't like the old jump starting at all I held the revs around 5000 all the way home and began to check the battery...
Fluid levels looked ok but I topped them up anyways and borrowed a charger from a friend, according to the charger the battery was at 70% power. So I'm leaving it on a trickle charge tonight and hoping that with 100% power things will be back to normal.
But after doing some poking around I found out the battery that I'm using is not the right battery for an 1150. Is this a big problem?
The proper battery is supposed to have a seperate hole for the sensor thing, my sensor was in place of one of the filler caps and my battery light was always on, but I assumed it was a wiring problem, because this was the battery that was in the bike when I bought it and she always started like a champ, then today... dead.
What gives?
Please help-
thx
