Yesterday i started my bike for the first time in a month. When I first tried to start it it started clicking real bad before it started. Today when I went out to start it all it does is click? It will not turnm over at all? Is this a battery problem or something more serious?

Please Help

May need to charge the battery if it'll take a charge.Try that first.

MORE THAN LIKELY ITS A BATTERY. IF A BIKE SITS FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, THE BATTERY IS REALLY LIKELY TO DRAIN. TRY PUTTING A TRICKLE CHARGER ON IT. IF THAT DOESNT WORK, REPLACE THE BATTERY. THAT SHOULD SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS. ANOTHER THING YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO IS GET A BATTERY TENDER. LET US KNOW HOW IT GOES.

I highly recommend a Battery Tender for long term storage. I travel in my job and the trips are usually a month or more in length...one of them was a little over 4 months.

Each time I got home and went to start the bike, the battery was in perfect shape every time. Well worth the $20...I also got one for the car for about $35.

This is a product that really works well.
