I have recently purchased a 2002 Fazer FZS 600. I have been using the bike regularly for a couple of wekks with no problems. Today I left the bike with the dipped lights on for about 15 mins. When I tried to start the engine the battery wouldn't turn the engine over. Would a battery in good condition run down that quickly or is my battery on the way out? Can somebody please advise? Thanks

No, it's half dead! Of course there's no real way of telling how much longer it will last.

Its most likely still got the original in there. Always worth changing when you buy a bike and don't know the history. It'll get worse when the temperatures drop.
