Hi

I think I may have solved this myself but just need some reassurance. This morning my GS refused to start and it seemed like a battery issue. The battery is only 3 months old and was installed by the previous owner just before I bought the bike.

I took  the battery out and even though it said, do not open, I opened it and poured some battery water in it. The battery was bone dry. I resealed the battery and installed it. Bike started first time!

So will my 'fix' screw my bike up or is this sealed battery thing just a way of ripping us off? I just want to be sure I have not damaged anything by doing this.

Thanks
Morpheus
