When winter weather hits, yank the battery, top off the water, and plug it in at the "battery station". Leaving the batt in the bike on the chance of a good day to ride may be the problem.<br /><br />I'm sure the Japanese have designed (and made some/all of the parts) their own sat killer system. As long as they don't assemble it, they don't actually "have" one. <br /><br />It's been mentioned by pros that the Japanese could be a nuke power simply by taking a long lunch and making/assembling them. I might be generous to give the NORK's a 48 hr survival window if they pop off one towards Japan.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722792638246578812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-40519861009624713722019-04-06T14:55:34.206-04:002019-04-06T14:55:34.206-04:00Japan's like Europe, only more so; they're...Japan's like Europe, only more so; they're not going to build any antisatellite system for themselves as long as the U.

Besides, the last time Japan got rowdy, things did not go so well for their neighbors, and ended worse for Japan.<br /><br /> Jaynola: I have a battery tender and consistently forget to use it.Roberta Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956807794520627885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-31406101764702720142019-04-06T11:56:32.088-04:002019-04-06T11:56:32.088-04:00Have you contemplated a battery tender.

They're fairly affordable and mine has paid for itself a couple times over since I seemed to need a new battery every year otherwise.

Which, I guess if you define an operational satellite as "debris" might be used as an ASAT.RandyGChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758726126424011542noreply@blogger.com
