trooper chase me for only having my spot lights on and you know this area

Bob.....what !!!! Worried about getting arrested because your headlight
wasn't on. You must live in NY :-) Here in Georgia.....we don't worry
about
 that stuff ...one of the benefits in living here in the "free" ...for
now...south :-)

Battery should last 2 yrs plus. My Wal mart $30 batteries have held up
for
 almost three years. Secret is to have a good generator....that is what
your
 problem is I think. Be sure to check your grounds though.....they can be
a
 problme source.

Ciao...Ian

Today I went on a 200mile jaunt in southern NY. Nice day. Halfway
through the trip I lost all electrical facility except ignition.
Headlight,
taillight, horn dash lights out! One of my buddies told me that he had
seen
my headlight getting dimmer and dimmer. I was able to make it home
without
 getting arrested. When I the road I checked all connections, looked at
fuses - all was OK. (Last week when I went to the Guzzi breakfast I
mentioned to Joe Casey that the battery was getting weak, so I shoulda
taken
action sooner.) I have had a 12v Yasua 300cca battery in my Ambo for
about
3 years. I guess the battery is wasted because I took it to Autozone
this
 evening and they told me that I only have 41 of the original 300 cold
cranking amps left. So, I bought an Autozone battery 12v 300cca designed
for garden tractor which is what Joe Casey recommended last week. So
should
the Yasua battery have lasted longer? About how long do these cheaper
garden tractor batteries last? And... since the bike was running OK why
didn't the generator continue to power the lights?? Bob
