Indian seriously needs to get this battery draw issue fixed on their bikes. I’ve been riding for over 20 years and have never had to keep a bike on a tender non-stop. Any bike that requires this has a design flaw. What good is having a gas powered vehicle that I have to plug in all the time. If...

I just replaced the stock battery (3 1/2 yrs old) with the Wicked battery. I got it from Amazon for just under $100 delivered. They claim 500 CCA, it cranked the bike right up with no problem and it is a direct fit for our stock batteries. Time will tell how this one lasts but I am happy with it...

I've seen in a few threads folks mentioned putting a 500 CCA battery in their bikes, but searching goole for 2016 Indian Chieftain battery brings up nothing but 270 to 310 CCA batteries. Anyone have a source for a 500 CCA battery they can share? I'd like to get as many cranking amps as I can...

Looking for some answers or idea's. My daughter's 2003 Scout Deluxe starts right up, but if you shut it off after riding the battery is dead. I've put a multi-meter on the battery after I started it and you can see the charge slowly go down. Any idea's???

When fooling with the battery, couple weeks back, I noticed the ground terminals were crimped on the ends of a thin-stranded cable, like so: You can see the strands either side are not crimped down. Nor are the strands in the center all in direct contact with the terminal. Cold weather prolly...

OK, so my ride only has 480 miles on it and it has worked perfectly until this afternoon when I got on it and within 2 miles, my voltage went to under 11 volts and the "low voltage" indicator came on, then 1 mile later, my driving lights and radio were shut down by the computer, then another...
