Happy ending to the long story! I finally got a new battery and it started right up.
I got involved with everything else because I had just put new gas with Sta-Bil in the tank, and I wanted to circulate it, knowing that I wouldn't be riding for a while.

this is a simple question. No one has to elaborate on 100 different things. I crank my motorcycle a 94 Heritage classic I’ve take the negative cable off the motorcycle dies. Is that normal?
