1 month
One month since I had the bike out. Wasn't expecting it to be this long between putts so I didn't put the trickle charger on it. Battery was dead dead dead. Battery is 7 years old, may be time for a new one.

I don't do much local riding but it has been sooner than a month. I think my battery is the original. . .

I picked up a battery for a friend about a year ago from "Batteries Plus". They had a three year free replacement warranty on it. I feel my next battery will come from them.
"Battery Mart" has some great pricing as well, but no local store. BOB

If'n you was closer, I'd run up to East Penn and pick up one of the DEKA blems. Same as the ones they make for HD but way cheaper. Paid $68 for the last one I bought for the Deluxe.
Can pick one up and ship it to you if you want. Might be closer to price of Batteries Plus by then.

I've got a batteries plus unit in my bagger. It's probably 5 years old and the only issue I ever had was me leaving the ignition on and killing it.

$125 at batteries plus.
$89 at BatteryMart. BatteryMart won this round. Should have it by Monday or Tuesday. Plenty of time before the next planned ride.
