Entries with tag "battery"

After three months of unquestionable reliability, my motorcycle suddenly started acting finicky last week, being hesitant to start (though it would start eventually). Finally, last Saturday, I was riding down a two-lane, unlit, hilly, windy road with no emergency lanes (at night), when suddenly the bike lost about half its power and all the lights became dim. A second later it sprung back to life, but a few seconds after that it died completely, and this time it didn't come back. Finding a safe place to coast off the road in the dark with no headlight (nor other lights of any kind to warn other cars of your existence) is a fun challenge.
