Battery might be weak

[tenxxx]

My original 2013 battery is still going strong. It spins the motor over fast.
It sits in the trailer all winter and starts fast in the spring with no charging in between.
But I will get her a new battery this year anyway.
The old battery will be a good 12v source for testing for a few more years if you keep it charged.

Wow that is longer than mine. I do believe this is the original battery on my 14B. I called my local shop to see if he had the OEM battery and he said he could have me one by this Thursday. Sell it to me for $165+tax. I said done deal. I've never checked on the battery since I've owned the bike in the 3 years. I should have checked it last year before I made my 5,500 mile trip to Montana. Shame on me! Leaving FL in June and going thru TX we hit temps of over 108 degrees. I figure I was pretty lucky. So I've got an OEM coming and went ahead and took out the existing one. I believe it is the original. Look at the corrosion on the positive post.

Yes, that does look like the original.

Most likely produced in 2013 .
