Many li-ion batteries have a built-in battery management system (BMS) to prevent over charging/discharging. The BMS can tell you if there is an issue with the battery. I would track down the manual for the battery and look for clues there.

Got my 1250 back yesterday from the steelers after annual service ( the last they will see)...

My wife and I engage in several risky hobbies including SCUBA, motorcycles, and general aviation. We used to have our SCUBA gear inspected annually, until we got on a boat for a week only to find on ...

Congrats, you have become master of what is intuitively obvious to even the most casual observer.

seems to work very well (as well as it should, costing 3.5x more)!!

I believe the price difference comes down to capability. Some might say the increased number of functions doesn't justify the difference, but you can do things with the GS-911 that can save you a lot of money. I live in the USA ...

There's no way you could hold an umbrella like that in one hand with the wind riding generates.

I used a Garmin Zumo for years on a previous bike; it's a solid product. I switched to a phone running Google maps, and I've not looked back since. I know you say a phone is not an option, but I would reconsider. With a bit of practice using voice commands you never need to touch the phone while ...

To add to Michel's post, it could be a bad clutch switch, or the switch/clutch lever may need adjustment.

Thanks for the update. That was a thorny one!

Seems like a lot of effort to get a few more ounces of fuel. I would just avoid topping off the tank.
