Lesson learnt....

I learnt an important lesson today.... Always disconnect your bike's battery if you are not gonna start it for a long time.

After 3 weeks of not starting my bike, the battery died on me. Tried to recharge it at Bikewerk, but the battery is still weak... the voltmeter shows a pathetic 9.5v.... Tried to push start the bike (yes... I tried to PUSH START a Hayabusa.... -___-""") but it just would not start. No choice.... ended up buying a new battery for it and I am $130 poorer now....sianz... :(

battery is expensive :(

Anyway the internal of a lead-acid battery starts to sulphate when its falls under voltage, when sulphate happens. Its as good as gone.
