Not long after the high of becoming a biker, things changed. I have been told that when you buy an old bike, things go wrong. You are always tinkering with things. Candi was not behaving again. No power, she would not start captain. No lights, no signals, the engine would not turn over. Back comes the wicked tech skills. So I thought, hhhmmmm. What could be wrong? The battery!!! Yeah, now I got it. Went to the manual, looked up battery. And it gave me a couple of things to try. Fill it up with water, but not any water. Distilled water. As having many years experience watering forklift batteries, this was one I could do! Added the water, put the battery back in....nothing. Oh, maybe the battery needs to be charged. How does one do that? You get a battery charger. Simple, went to the local Canadian Tire, bought the charger, plugged it in. The night took forever, like Christmas eve, and your birthday, and the day before Summer vacation all rolled into one. The next morning, out I went, and....Candi LIVES!!!
