I had the Tender connected, but somehow I lost AC power to the tender and didn't notice for a couple of months while it was parked/stored. I think the Tender's internal resistance "drained" the battery. It may have been fine if the tender was not attached at all<br /><br />bob<br /><a href="http://www.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">bobskoot: wet coast scootin</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204440107409695969.post-14725525123237805202010-02-25T06:49:28.310-06:002010-02-25T06:49:28.310-06:00Jack: I think riding anything in this frozen salty...<b>Jack:</b> I think riding anything in this frozen salty winter mess will cause issues. I haven't really experienced any issues with the Ural I wouldn't have on any other bike in these conditions (flat tire, corroded plugs, corroded relay). Of course, another bike wouldn't have made it traction wise either.<br /><br /><b>Charlie6:</b> Nope, I did the above because the battery went dead mysteriously and wasn't charging on the tender. I think I found the issue and will post about it later today.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06606446271603142230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204440107409695969.post-58081530222040943352010-02-24T18:25:28.065-06:002010-02-24T18:25:28.065-06:00Chris, I read this post AFTER reading the one wher...Chris, I read this post AFTER reading the one where you had a dead battery....you sure these events are not connected? just wondering.redlegsrideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927757855921321097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204440107409695969.post-63218941509691598052010-02-24T17:05:01.879-06:002010-02-24T17:05:01.879-06:00Dear Chris:

Removing the battery on the K75 still entails disconnecting a few gadgets and moving stuff around, including the motronic brain. It is not nearly as easy as pulling the battery from a 1975 Kawsaki H2. From your posts and those of REDLEGS RIDES, buzzing around on a Ural is an act of mechanical commitment.<br /><br />Fondest regard,<br />Jack • reep • Toad<br />Twisted RoadsJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204440107409695969.post-43835922978665581862010-02-24T16:44:32.980-06:002010-02-24T16:44:32.980-06:00Bob: I have an SAE2 wire on all my bikes.

I'm going to make jumper cables on SAE2 next.<br /><br /><b>Rogers:</b> They are decedents from ancient BMWs, but with a Russian twist. <br /><br /><b>KidMystic:</b> 20F ramp at work was much colder... but not bad. I found my spare gloves in the tool roll, so that helped.

So how was ..."It isn't hard at all."<br /><br />So how was it the comfort of the 20° F garage at work?<br /><br />Should you revise your tools list to include extra parts like fuses?Primary Author: KidMystichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06571188072404849799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204440107409695969.post-7815564485482194802010-02-24T14:39:59.864-06:002010-02-24T14:39:59.864-06:00Yoik!

I use those for my electric vest or battery tender. It would also come in handy for powering 12V battery charges for your electronic stuff or camera batteries<br /><br />Don't worry about getting your GoProHD after Gary. He has to be in London for a custom bike show, so he won't have time to play with it. If I were him I would charge the battery and take some video at the show handheld. You can get a lot of stealth video as it looks like a toy and no one will really notice it<br /><br />bob<br /><a href="http://www.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">bobskoot: wet coast scootin</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.com
