    Looks like time for a new battery. This one's not holding charge well and alternator output seems to read as okay.

    I've always used Yuasa, not so much because I'm a big fan as we mainly sold them when I was a dealer. Old, lazy habits persist.

    But now I want to make the right choice. The sealed batteries don't sound bad since one time I'm sure I overcharged and lost my water (forgiveable for a lady having a baby but doesn't apply in my case).

    May also buy for a maintainer when this riding season starts to wind down.

    Anybody recommend a battery brand as being notably better than Yuasa?

    thanks
