My battery keeps dyin on me. The battery does not look new, so I just want to make sure that its the battery that is bad and not a problem with the wires. The rear brakelight is missing off the trike, so the wires are loose and I did not know if that would cause the battery to drain faster than normal. I also don't have a keyed ignition, instead I have a toggle switch to turn the ignition on/off. If I charge the battery fully, the electric start will work fine and the headlight works fine, but if i run the bike with the head light on for a few hours the battery starts to die. So I just want to make sure that the battery is junk and its not a wiring problem. Also, the only battery I can find for it is a ProMax for 57 dollars from DK. Is there any other quality battery out there? I need something that will be reliable in my cold New England winter. Thanks

It sure sounds like the battery is junK you should be able to get batter from just about anywhere. Like fleet farm or walmart. All they are. Are motorcycle batires so any place that sells batteries for a lawn mower or motorcycle should be able to hook you up. We bought one for my freinds big red. From our local auto parts store for $19.99.
