>>> My '00 Sprint ST with 82k miles has developed a starter problem....
While the battery is old (original), I have no reason to believe it has
a low voltage problem. But I have not tested / measured yet. <<<
Congratulations David, you're probably the lucky owner of the
longest-lived battery in the history of motorcycling! I'm sure if you
contact the manufacturer, they'll give you a new one free in exchange
for your old battery,...they'll want it for their museum.
The following table may be useful in testing your possibly dead
battery:
Open circuit voltage State-of-Charge in %. Test the battery at room
temperature. Allow 4-8 hour of rest after charge or discharge.
12.65V - 100%
12.45V - 75%
12.24V - 50%
12.06V - 25%
11.89V or less Discharged
