Hey I am new to this forum and have a question about the electrical/battery on my 2007 650R. I left the key in the on position all day yesterday and killed the battery. I tried to jump it using a car battery when i got home after disconnecting the bike battery. I can't get anything to work on the bike at all? I charged the bike battery on the trickle charge all night and still get nothing when i turn the key to the on position. any ideas? thanksI recently bought a battery tender and I have a question. It comes with both the clamps and the circles that I can screw onto the battery.
Does it actually matter which end I use?
+1 If you tried to jump with a Car, there is a chance that a Fuse went. I'd check that.Fuses?
I'm sure you've reconnected the Battery? (had to ask...sometimes you NEVER KNOW!).....after disconnecting the bike battery.
Id also recomend checking the main fuse/fuseable link, esp if your not getting power to anythingMiller, look in your manual and find the main fuse. Usually it's just off the positive cable. Check that. Should be a larger amp fuse than the rest. Don't ask how I know.![]()
As for the tender leads, they are AWESOME! I have them on both mine and my GF's bike, they make using the tender effortless (don't know about you guys, but if I can just plug it in I'm MUCH MORE LIKELY to actually do it!)
Another advantage to the battery tender leads/quick connect is that electric vests can often be plugged into the battery tender leads.
