Hello,
Since I am new to this I was hoping i can get some info regarding the issue Im having.
I started recently having issues with my 1989 k100.
First it was with the battery loosing power. I charged it and it worked fine. After couple of days riding it started loosing power and the bike would stop while riding. Took it to a mechanic and it seemed that the battery totally lost power, as soon as i would connect jump cables the bike would start and work fine.
Today it happened the same thing while i was riding i noticed the engine wasnt sounding right and soon enough it stopped and it wouldnt start up. I used the jump cables again and it worked fine.
Im starting to believe that the bike is draining the battery somehow or maybe just the battery is gone bad.
Anyone had the same issues or is just me....
Any feedback is appreciated
Thank you in advance
