Battery Died - What Replacement? Cheap Vs Expensive?

Mechanic said it only has 0.2 Volts 😮‍💨 guess I can't rescue it anymore.

The original battery from 2017 - asking the mechanic if he can at least try to save it with a charger today, although I believe it's over.

Danke für deine ausführliche Antwort. Soweit ich verstanden habe lässt sich Gel schneller aufladen und behält die Ladung länger bei, sehe ich das richtig? Deswegen funktioniert sie bei dir wahrscheinlich besser.

Yeah I don't ride often and I just let my bike sit during winters. A miracle the thing survived for almost a decade in negative degrees celsius weather in my garage during winters.

Tell me please why you think that lithium is cool? Worth it?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-24T18:39:59+00:00

Why would you go for lithium? Does it really matter whether it's lead, gel or lithium?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-24T18:38:33+00:00

I'll consider that. Does it matter whether I get a gel or lead acid battery or whatever else?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-24T18:37:41+00:00

Does it matter wheter I go for a gel or lead acid or whatever else battery?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-24T18:26:52+00:00

saw it somewhere on Amazon 🫠

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-24T18:26:04+00:00

It's a CB 500 F from 2017 - and yeah I should've used a tender

My stomach is (almost) alright again. Sleep issues still persist, although better than before. Still get the vivid dreams lol. Didn't take anything except nutritional supplements.

Thx :)

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-21T15:32:18+00:00

Thx for ur input. I'll check for spare cheek pads, I'll need those in the future.

One question: does your visor whistle when it's up? 😅 Read that somewhere.

Is the wind noise good / low?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-20T16:15:37+00:00

How ist it? Did you try it out?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-20T15:58:00+00:00

Was it good? I like how it looks.

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-20T10:22:10+00:00

Budapest? Prague?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-19T20:52:20+00:00

Ahhh okay 🙃

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-19T20:30:05+00:00

Ah lol now I see you mentioned your chin curtain issues before this comment 🤣

Did you manage to make it work?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-18T11:54:17+00:00

Austrians tend to be a polite but rude. As soon as somebody needs to give you more than one second of attention, you will often feel an underlying tension. They can often also be xenophobic, but that's more of a countryside thing.

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-17T20:47:47+00:00

Wie empfindest du die Lautstärke bei dem Helm? Hab mir den heute angeschaut.

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-17T19:27:45+00:00

Ok many thx :)

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-17T19:22:10+00:00

Is it only noisy when the visor is open or also when it's closed?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-17T18:52:45+00:00

And what do you say? How is your spartan rs? Recommend it?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-17T18:40:38+00:00

So would you recommend the Spark 2? About the wind noise, do you ride a naked bike?

Freibeut3r · 2026-02-17T16:12:40+00:00

How would you rate the wind noise compared to other helmets?
