My Shorai lithium never failed to start me, even after sitting outside for 8 hours at my work in up to -10c (14f). I'm surprised you had such trouble,
Dam my Shoria starts to have trouble around 30' f . Also it starts messing with my dash the trip and Mpg fade and go blank . The five year old yusa never did that . No regrets live and learn .
They suggest switching your ignition on for 1 minute before starting, allowing the battery to warm up from the draw of the lights and such. Have you tried that?
Well she sat on the Tender Jr since Saturday. I rode her to work last Thursday and it started all day. Went to start her this morning(after putting on all my cold weather-gear) and she would not start. :surrender::surrender::surrender:
When I came in the house, the wife was gathering her car keys and the granddaughter to drive me to work, "I guess you should order a new battery."
You most likely have a battery issue. I have an '09 with the original battery (more on that later). It is always on a Battery Tender Jr., and it sits for two months during the summer when I flee north to escape the heat. It never failed to start until last week after sitting for 7 days. Battery Tender showed 'green light', so rolled it out of the garage and tried to start it. It would crank, but slower than normal, then the dreaded 'click, click, click'. I've noticed for the last month it seemed to crank a little slower than normal, but it always started. So I ordered a new Yuasa gel filled battery from Amazon (Yuasa no: YUAM72Z14). They are all priced similarly whether on eBay or Amazon, so take your pick. I like Amazon because they deliver when they say they are going to.
In the meantime I removed the OEM battery and expected to find a Yuasa, nope, it had a crappy BikeMaster (Chinese made) battery that the dealer put in the bike when I bought it NEW. So I'll have a visit with them the next time I see them (a-holes). They put a cheap battery in and kept the better one for themselves. Got the new, MADE IN JAPAN Yuasa battery two days later and the first thing I did was put it on the 0.75 amp BT because you never know how long it has sat since being made, the dates are coded so you can't be sure. It went from 'red' to 'green' in about 45 minutes. Dropped it in the bike and it started up with less than 1/2 second of cranking, you could hear that the starter motor spun much faster. Remember, the battery is supplying energy for the coils, injectors, fuel pump, and the starter and if it isn't up to scratch it won't start the engine even if it shows the correct voltage (the real world 'load test'). So I'm good to go. I suspect your battery is on it's way out, you have done well if it is the original battery. Don't risk being stuck out somewhere....change it now..
