Default Battery toast?

In my effort to get my bike up and running I removed the battery yesterday and placed it on a charger. It registered 3V. I let it charge overnight at a charge rate of 2 amps. It's now registering 7.5V. Should I continue this slow charge or is the battery toast? A little history on the battery...it's from my '06 FXDLI with less than 200 miles on it...the bike probably hasn't been started in over a year...thanks in advance...

Replace it! it will probably leave you stranded. should have came up to 12v by now, probably has some bad cells.
