Howzit boys!!
My 640 is now 3 1/2 years old and it seems that the battery is going!! Is that about the lifespan or is there something else wrong?? I know i havent been riding a lot, but i charged it once and after a week it was flat again.....
Where in the Western cape except at KTM can I get one and do someone know the code, I can go and open it but want to get one today??
Then something else, in the owners manual they say one can charge your battery via the Hella socket on the dash of the 640, I made some small jumper cables with two clamps and a Hella socket on the other side, but no go. My polarity of the wires are correct, but its thinnish wires, about 2mm diametre of wire, can someone help here???
Cheers Frohan
