let the chaos begin

#1 Post by Falconihlist » Thu Jul 19, 2012 8:12 pm

finally got back from Canadialand this week, and now the task of getting the beast back on the road. As the wife has no knowledge of bike things, the battery hasn't been on the charger at all since March. Plugged it in, and still registering 11.5 volts at 70 amps. Lets see how it goes tomorrow :smt003

Got all the brake and clutch fluid to replen, re-oil the chain, and get it started up :smt017

It's good to be back :smt003

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Battery shouldn't fail after 4 months. The scooter I have in the garage hasn't been started in a year and it fired up 1st time on Friday, never saw a recharger either. :smt001
