Plainemu:
Came out to garage this morning . Switch on fuel pump primed ,hit starter . Nothing just the front lights dimming . No clicking etc bumped it off first time no issue at all . Ride out came back and same again . Priming and Dim lights . Am thinking it’s battery related . I have 12.1 V showing across the battery but nothing . Got to wait until neighbour comes back back to bump it off again and get a reading when running . Wanted to check to see if I should be looking elsewhere but battery

crump:
12.1 isn't enough I don't think, needs to be 12.6 minimum I think.......tbf I am an electrical numpty.

The Doctor 46:
I think you already know the most likely cause of your problem. I think you need a new battery. Mind when you are bumping it that you don't drop it instead causing more problems. Let us know how you get on.

A fully charged battery, left for an hour to settle should read ( in an ideal world ) 12.6 volts.
12.1 is on the low side.

Plainemu:
New battery on order so will keep you all posted . Thanks for the reply’s much appreciated
