With forecast of temperatures in the upper 40s, I planned to take the Beast out for yet another final ride of the season. It was pretty chilly, 30s when I was preparing for the ride. Long johns, knee-length wool socks, wool sweater, balaclava, neck tube, the whole 9 yards. When I finally mounted the Beast, inserted the key and twisted it there was nothing, absolutely nothing. How disheartening!
I put the battery on a tender, but it still hasn't taken a charge and that was hours ago. I'll let it sit over night and check in the morning. Perhaps it's just a faulty battery. Let's hope. My fear is an electrical short some where hard to find. Yikes!
I rode the Bonnie instead. Windscreen was in the basement, no heated grips, no fairing. I hadn't been on it for a while and it felt good, but dang I got cold.
