Think the battery has had it, its a B*w gell and has only done a few K's but bike stood for 2 years, it charges but took 2 days to fully charge initially. Clock zero's everytime i start the bike so assume its had it. The place i normally get batteries from won't send with acid anymore. So any recommendations for a replacement ?

Has it been allowed to flat? if so it's probably had it, had the same with one I had only solution is new battrery they do NOT like being completly discharged for periods.

Same for any lead acid battery.

Once they've been completely flattened you've permanently lost some capacity. The longer they are left flat, the worse the effect. No amount of fancy chargers will fix this.

This is true for any lead acid battery whatever the make or model.
