New Battery Time??
While I was quickly wiping the '94 off (about 5 to 10 mins) right after
gasing up, I left the DOOR OPEN and the KEY IN THE IGNITION. YEAH, YEAH,
I KNOW. Anyhow, the "KEY IN THE IGNITION BELL" was ringing, the DOME
LIGHTS, etc. were on. But still only about 5 to 10 minutes. When trying
to start the ride, I heard the famous "rapid clicking" sound of years
past. My battery is almost 5 yrs. old. In replacing the battery — what
BRAND and how many CRANKING AMPS should I consider. Oh, it took
about 10 seconds and $10.00 for the service station to jump start me.
OUCH!
