Doh! drained my bat

ehhh! I just had gotten home the other day from about a 100m ride. My neighbor flagged me down when I got home and I ran inside his place quick. (left on my ac) He kinda hung me up inside and I forgot about my bike :P

after about 20 mins I was dead dead. Now I got the bike going with a safe jump but I assume the check engine light will stay on until the bat is up in charge again? Will it fill itself back if completely drained or should I get myself a charger and fill it up that way?

You should fully charge the battery, lead acid battery`s don`t like being flat and it can shorten there life. you should get yerself somethin like this..........

hope this helps

Battery Minder is the best, with desulfation pulse technology. Put pigtail on your battery, connect whenever you park. It will bring your battery back to peak performance and keep it good for years.
