Checked the battery charge? Engine sparking or nothing when you turn her on? (To turn my baby on I just crook my finger and tell her I'm gonna ride her )

yeppers unless u go get a tender. if u get a tender i can tell u how to install it on your battery without taking off your tank. there only $20-40 and you will be ready to ride the next day. http://store.58cycle.com/SearchResul...=10&Search.y=7

will a tender work or is there a point in a battery life when it will not be able to be recharge?
i used jumper cables and got it to start but when i would ride of 35mph it would go back to 0 then back to what mph i was at and then reset. is this do to the battery or did i **** something up? i so hope not.

you not supposed to jump FI bikes. The battery doesnt get enough power out of it to power the electronics and charge it. best bet is to take the battery out and recharge it.

so then your saying i should buy a tender and the will recharge my battery no matter what, and the reason it resets itself after i go over 35mph is because the battery is to low?
