start up issues

[mark ward]

What ever battery, (I now have GELL and like it.) you should install a $5. +- Keyed relay. If you plug in a gps, or PHONE CHARGER, (common) and forget to remove the plug, the plug alone will drain your battery. With a key on powered outlet, you have power to the outlet (powerrobbers) onlywhekeyed Sorry I just Lost my space bar acction

Situation: I have a '09 with original battery. I've installed a cigarette lighter directly to the battery (ground/hot wire). Now and then I am required to put the bike on the trickle charger for a few minutes to get some power and crank the bike. In your experience with KLR stock batteries/strator, should I start looking for a new battery or even and upgrade in my electrical system? Any advice is appreciated. ATW!
