    CBR issues

    00 CBR600F4

    The starter turns over very slowly, like a weak battery. Apparently it's been doing it for weeks, but it will start and run, somewhat roughly. It's got the appropriate model AGM battery. I tried charging it, but no change. Most battery issues I've had in the past were quick and no start. Is it possible this battery is holding V at level just enough to start for this long? Could that low V in the battery cause rough running/stalling??

    Many possibilities unfortunately.

    Is the battery actually holding a charge? Throw a multimeter on it and see if it's holding voltage.

    If it was a reg / rec issue charging the battery should have at least made it start easier.

    Could be a bad starter. That shouldn't make it run rough.

    Outside chance at a float being stuck open, flooding a cylinder with fuel, making it hard to start, and run like crap.
    Try taking out the plugs and starting it. It won't start, but if fuel shoots out, you'll know.

    Also worth checking all of your grounds, those are free to check out and can definitely cause a weak starter.
