Battery Question.....

When I was deployed, my bike sat for many months and once I came home and the battery was completly dead. I charged it up and it seemed fine after that.
I bought a Battery Tender (finally) and keep the batt topped up.
Question is...the battery is never fully charged and takes about an hour to get there, even when I just turn the lights on for a moment. Is the battery going dead?

..how does it seem when you start the bike now? does it struggle to crank it over? or does it seem nice and strong when you crank the starter?...I wouldn't change the battery just because the trickle charger shows a red light for a while until going green..I think the trickle will almost always do that when first hooked up...a battery might be at 95% but if you hook up the trickle it wants to get to 100% so it shows red...but that doesn't mean the battery is no good...It looks like from your sig that the battery is only 1-2 years old...should be still good in my opinion...have it load tested at an indy shop to be sure if u want...thanks for your service by the way..
