    Grabbed a new battery on Saturday. It was one where the acid is kept separate and you put in in yourself. I connected it to my trickle charger then and has been plugged in for about 30 hours so far but its still not showing charged on the l.e.d. Does it take long to get a new battery charged? Or should I just jump the bike and let it run for a while tomorrow? It cant be rode so would just be left idling



    Edit: Never mind it literally just started showing charged now

    Did you give the battery a good tapping with a screwdriver handle or similar before you started charging?
    If there was bubbles on the plates it can seriously affect lifespan.
    Its advisable to so this with any of the acid pack type batteries before charging them.
