Hi all.
i haven't used my H1D for a while ,But went to ride the other day and it starts and runs fine but i have no lights or horn, even when running?.
it has a newish gel battery that is on charge as i type.
there is only one fuse and that's not blown.
my guess is the battery comitted suicide from loneliness.
what should i check before buying another battery ?

Did you actually measure 12V on the non-battery side of the fuse?
