On the subject of batteries. My bike was not started for about 2 weeks and of course it would not start.

So I removed it with difficulty and gave it a good slow trickle charge and when installed the bike started right up.

HOWEVER I cannot get the silly thing back into the holder. I have a 07 Speeedmaster and I cannot stuff it back from whence it came. Is there a special trick to this or am just a flummox?


07 Speedmstr, Long Tors, bags, sissy bar and rack, windshield, engine bars, 2 ww lights, 2 fast eddy stickers and a .45 ACP.
