Well fun, battery died

Well fun, just over a week in college and the damn battery cuts out, I noticed it hesitating to crank for a day or two before hand and then today when I go to try and head off the failure, click click click damn battery is dead. Anyways got some cheapo from the nearest autoparts store here in Deland. And I've got a bubble in the sidwall of my rear RE750 so I have to go to the bridgestone dealer next time I'm in jacksonville and talk to them about the road hazard warranty.

Same happened to me last year. There's always the warning signs (slow to turn over) and we always ignore it only to hear that dreaded click click click in just a few short days.

Well I feel better at least I'm not the only one, but still I expected a little more than 2 days of noticable warning signs.

Mine was going for a while. I picked up a new group 24 R battery from autozone and had it in my trunk for 3 weeks!! My battery died twice but I would use jumper cables and jump power from the new battery. Yesterday I was going to take the battery in my trunk back and get a refund and I hear the click. click. click of the selinoid. I said screw it and pulled the old battery out and put the new battery in and it starts so much better now. Our high compression engines need plenty of juice to start up!
