    No juice!

    Got out of work yesterday and went to my fiance's mom's because the lawn looks like a hay field. Mowed over there for a bit then jumped back on my bike to head home and...NO JUICE! WTF? It's like somebody stole the battery.

    Terminal connectors are tight, fuses are good. Think it might be in the ignition switch.

    Stupid question, but did you check the kill switch?

    My instruments are completely off when the kill switch is off, but if the headlights don't come on at all then that's probably not it. I've seen it happen though, so I figured it would be worth a shot.

    Well, I tried it today and the dash lit up and the headlight came on, but the battery is obviously dead. Just very odd that it went from perfect to stone dead after sitting for about an hour. Might be the voltage regulator again.

    Have the battery tender on it so we'll see what happens.

    Might be an internal short in the battery.

    That would be nice. The simpler the better.

    The thing is only 3-4 years old. The shortest I've had a yuasa is 5 years, and that was with killing it twice by forgetting to turn off my heated grips (on the quad).
