Well it looks like I will finally have to bite the bullet and replace the damned battery.
I have not ridden the bike in several days so it was sitting in the unheated (but hardly frigid) garage all this time, and we have been having some cold-for-Houston weather over that time. This morning, all suited up and ready for my 32 deg.F commute to the office, it refused to turn over. Would not even accept a jump start from my little power pack (that can and has started my truck's V8) although admittedly the connection might have been poor in my haste to start and leave for work.
I had done some research since the start of this thread, so will have to resume that and pull the trigger. Which option will I choose? ... watch for a video coming to a channel near you.
