Chad is Dead Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 i havent rode my 01 honda cbr f4i for the last couple months due to not having my license...i tried to start it today with no success. Lights and everything came on but very dim. I tried running w/ it and jumping on and throwing it in gear but that work. What should I do to get this bitch running?

wheezy Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 I think some bikes need a fully charged battery to run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balian Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 It is a battery tender. You can pick one up at Iron Pony or any bike shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wicked94s10 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 i let my bike sit in the cold a couple of years ago and the battery froze, you might need to replace it if it wont hold a charge, they are not as good as car batteries, the cells in them crack with time and weather, if the side of the battery is clear like mine was you can see the cells in the side of the battery and you will be able to tell if one is cracked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash1647545504 Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 Check the watter in the battery, you might just need some distilled watter and a charge. If that doesn't work, get another battery and hope it isn't that dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
