few weeks ago a left my parking lights on, which in my case means all lights, and the battery went dead.
had a driveway with lots of slope so i started it in 2nd gear and thot ok, lets ride.
got about a block away and it started to die in the most horrible way, strangled, really ugly. pushed it back to slope and tried it again but same thing.
so i charged the battery and started it up just fine, no more problems.
i had the feeling that the ecm was pissed off with lack of voltage but cant understand why after i started it things got so bad.
anyone had similar problems?

Fuel pumps, electronic ignition, and ECUs take a good bit of power to run.

Can't say I'm surprised.
