i'd check the optimate weeksy, ive heard that they dont mix well with older dukes. i had a few issues with battery problems when i first got my 748 then ditched the optimate and all was well after a good charge and ride

i've tried 2 chargers now, and while charging both batteries go up to about 14v.

But after left sitting for a few hours in the kitchen my battery is showing 12.61 and Ceris showing 12.78.

So i guess they are both not the best ever.

I'm going to try both on hers tomorrow first of all and then on mine.... it's irritating me now.

Warm the bike up around the engine with a hair dryer first steve,...........:D......not that ive got one er um....

a. you serious or kidding ?
b. no-where to plug it into.

You must have an extension lead? Blow some warm air in to the air intakes as well. just to get its temp up a bit!

is it April 1st ?

extension lead would need to be 70m in length mate.

better get 5 or 6 extension leads then weeksy

thought you were an athlete................push the cocking bike to the electric then!:lol::lol:

No wheels fitted.


seriously, are you kidding here or what ?

It will help warming the bike....if your up for it take the plugs out and warm/dry them in the gas flame on your hob................
