my 06' battery is only 14 months old (bike has 1900 miles now) and i left my key on for a couple minutes about 250 miles ago. came out to start the bike and the engine would barely turn over. ended up just bump starting her. weird thing is i haven't had a problem since.

hayden, my old battery did the same exact thing, but it only took me 10 seconds for it to drain! i replaced it with a dvolt gel battery (www.dvoltbatteries.com). I havent tried testing how long my bike will last with out turning on the engine, but for the most part, my new battery works great

The original Honda battery that cam with my bike sucked. It died after 8000 miles /16 months. I did leave the ket on maybe 3 times and drained it to zero so part of it was my fault, but either way, every year and a half I plan on getting a new battery whether it needs it or not.

my bike is still under the factory warranty does anyone know if this is covered? i used a slow charger the other day, charged it to full charge, parked it and 36 hours later it was dead.

Don't know if it's a short or something else, but looks like something is draining your battery. I have the stock battery on my '05, and never have any issues. Even when I plug in my battery tender, it charges for about 2 seconds, and then changes to the green light.

factory warranty doesn't usually cover such things as batteries, brakes, and other parts that are considered maintenance parts.

Hmm, I have an 04 got my bike last Sept haven't had battery issues at all. And have since put 16,500 miles on the bike. Have never had an issue starting it or having my battery die.

I realize you haven't had it very long, it's pretty much up to the dealer.
