I've had my Busa almost two years. My battery is kaput! Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks.........

I still have the original battery in my 2003 (that one is stock displacement). I charge it with an Optimate III about once a month in the winter.

if batteries were not prepped correctly from your local dealership this would cause premature failure. install acid pack let set for 30 min. put on a 1.5 amp trickle charger for 10hrs. then it is fully prepped. and also put a tender on bat. when bike will be sitting for periods of time not doing this will cause premature failure also.
