    What are the weak points 05-16 T100 Voltage, Battery

    My recurrent problem is, once in a while hot or cold , batterie charged; i press start button, got quick reaction then cut (just to engage starter) may repeat 2 to 4 time before i get a good turn over.
    I did A) Opened the push button & I polish the little pin & spring. Before closing cleaned whit contact cleaner. seem ok for a while, then will reoccurred. Also tough the neutral switch B) while holding start button when it does it (cut ) i play whit the clutch lever, (no change) nothing will happen!
    Tried turn to turn off ignition, (computer related ? ha ha) But will always end up by cranking over at one point
    Just when out and did it again, so checked again: Cleaned batterie & tight post, same starter relay post.
    Can a 6 year old battery, be weak or not keeping charges?

    It’ll be the usual can-bus system computer not letting it start because it’s dropped in voltage output by very little more than likely. A problem most live with.

    "Quote " (system computer not letting it start because it’s dropped in voltage output by very little more than likely)
    "I took that in consideration"
    So i started de-snag right from beginning,
    I have a very old trickle charger, (seemed to take for ever to charge )
    So replaced for new smart one, After a couple hrs (even if sill showing charging)
    Already saw a difference, starting every time and sounded stronger cranking too.
    So it might of looked to deep to solve the problem.
    Result 1) A good trickle charger, 2) And replace my 6 year old battery that don't know the history Bike stored in Ontario none heated shed.
    Thanks,
