Subject : Re: [Virago] Riding Season Over?
I was riding to work yet last week, actually 60 here only Monday, changes fast. Okay, tenderize the battery, leave it be, that way, when it changes back suddenly (which it often does) I can scoot right out.

Jeff,

And here I was rejoicing in weather in the 60's...I rode to work and also out to Ponte Vedra today, going "yay!!!" the whole way.

But I do run on.

I don't know anything about AGM batteries specifically, but a battery tender is wonderful. I kept Jenny on one when it was in the 100's here and riding felt like sitting on a skillet.
