Can anyone corroborate this?

A fully charged, unconnected, battery cannot produce more than 12.6V

I had similar issue. First start in 5 years and starter +ve was grounded through rust, which blew the relay up! As a side question - anyone know what the ‘gunk’ is inside all the connectors on the loom and should it be cleaned out before things are reconnected? If it's the white grease put in by Ho...

I have a Armadillo cover which is pretty good, they have 3 sizes available, this is the largest and has I have 2 project bikes inside comfortably. It’s less than a year old but seems pretty sturdy and durable. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230228/9617c7d1bded68940e95cb15a1df424b.jpg Sent from ...

Who's next to help me spend my meagre pension on things I didn't know I needed?

I use the large size covers.

What size? Any type of cover people have found last for longer than year or so, without falling apart in the super hot English sun? I use Oxford Stormex, but they only last about a year, as the adhesive on the seams goes dry and they then leak. Still the best I've used though. All covers are bad fo...

Can't afford those...poor pensioner

Maybe a silly question, but did you remove the battery when it was being maintained?

If you reconnect the battery leads back to front by accident, that fuse will blow immediately.

Just checking.....
