1978 CB550 Battery losing charge
« on: August 04, 2019, 10:31:08 AM »
I have a strange issue with my Yuasa battery. Every time I go to start it with the ctek hooked up it drops from full charge (5 dots) down to 2 dots. The bike has had the reg/rec replaced and has been rewired by ACME cycles in Chicago. Any help is appreciated.

Do not start with the CTEK hooked up.
