[QUOTE="Fontanaman, post: 951264, member: 19354"] My [URL="https://fjrjim.blogspot.com/2012/04/no-dams.html"]motorcycle trip[/URL] was cut short by a dead battery. Lesson Learned: The batteries ability to spin the engine is [COLOR=#FF0000]NOT[/COLOR] a good indication of a good battery. By that time it is too late, way too late. I have avoided installing a Datel meter cause I don't like cutting plastic or futzin' with electrical relays. Although I did install a relay on my Vstrom but, like most things these days, I barely remember that. Instead of a Datel why not use a [URL="https://clearwaterlights.com/infopg_cvs.html"]Clearwater Voltage Sentry[/URL]. Here is a [URL="https://www.webbikeworld.com/r4/clearwater-voltage-sentry/"]review[/URL] from webBikeWorld. This seems to do the same thing without all the installation issues. [/QUOTE]
