My '09 25R started doing something kind of weird.After sitting for about a week she will start right up but if I only take a short trip before I shut her down she won't start the second time and I have to break out the jumper cables.Then she runs fine the rest of the day.The first time it happened the positive cable was a little loose so I tightened both of them.When it happened yesterday I checked the voltage after I jump started her and it read 13.7.Anybody know what the heck is going on?

Check all your grounds. One might be a little loose.

It could be a lot of things. What is your running voltage comared to idle, off idle, and above four k rpm. Also get your battery load tested.

It is easier to diagnose and trouble shoot the battery, than the charging system
