run down road in first gear drop clutch jump on board

i had to do this last week when my brother phoned me at midnight because he left the heated grips on FOOL

PS it was a varadero heavy bastard

[froggy128]

no luck it will not bump, it will run when attached to a car by jump leads but cuts off as soon as you move them. Got it going this morning but wont hold any charge so just dies again

I ran mine right down too. Was a absolute bastard to start and even when it did it didnt run properly. Would cut out below 4K and would misfire at 6!

Just geta new one in ASAP. prob about £20-25.

It sounds like a charging fault rather than a battery fault given the symptoms.

Run a battery dead enough times and it'll not hold charge. They're not designed to be run dead.
