Dead battery???

[bcroninuk]

Battery has been on trickle charge for nearly 2 years, with the bike sitting on paddock stands for similar time.

Is this a dead battery or something else wrong?
If you are wondering where the OH sound came from... my nosey 2 year old son.

Sounds dead to me, could give it a big booster charge, but really once they are gone they are gone.

If it was dead, the multimeter would have already told you.

I had the bat on charge again, up to green light, but a repeat of the video again today. When I put it back on charge again it had dipped down to orange already. New battery on the way!

Thanks for your help.

Sometimes an old battery will show full charge but when you try to take power from it the drop off is so quick that it wont start the bike or even click a solenoid. Bike shops and Halfords usually have drop test devices. If you use an optimate that will usually be able to tell if its ok or not.
