After sitting outside for 15 hours while I was at work yesterday, my America refused to start to take it's Master home. I just put in a new battery a couple of weeks ago. I guess normally prudent people wouldn't care if their bike will start when it's really cold, but I do!! I should have taken Pat's advice and bought the stronger battery.

I thought the south was supposed to be warm, I'm working in Emporia Va and had to use my magnet oil warmer to start my America. But at least I had my company truck this A.M.
