Hi guys,
I'm a new 1150GS owner and absolutely loving the bike but have an annoying problem with the electrics.
I bought the bike a week ago and the battery died the following day, it didn't seem to want to hold a charge. I got some charge back into it and took it back to the dealer for a new battery and they checked it was charging OK.
all's been fine for a week and I've done about 400 miles since, yesterday the bike started and ran fine, today it wont turn over and the battery is reading 0 volts.
It wont charge and when hooked up to the charger the only current draw from the bike is about 3mA so I can't see that discharging a battery over night to the point where it's deceased.
It's going into Pidcocks under warranty tomorrow but wondered what you guys thought to the problem.
cheers
Ian
