Backed my bike down the driveway at 0500 this morning to leave for work and battery was dead. Apparently my daughter was climbing on it yesterday and turned on the heated road sofa seat killing the battery. I can't push it up the slope so pulled an extension cable and hooked up the battery tender while it's parked on the sidewalk. What do y'all think the chances are that when I get home in 13 hours that it starts or is the battery toast?

Thanks

Your battery probably won't be charged all the way in 8 hrs using a battery tender. So if it does start , pull it in the garage to finish the charge.
The newer bikes are a lot more finicky about needing close to full battery power to start compared to the older bikes.

So, out of curiosity I checked out Batterymart.com. I see a big difference in price for batteries. The
Mega Crank MTX-30L AGM Maintenance Free Battery
Item #: MTX-30L
Price: $99.95

and then

USA-Made Motocross Platinum GYZ32HL AGM Maintenance Free Powersports Battery
Item #: GYZ32HL
Price: $179.16

The specs are similar. Why such a big disparity in price? Is it a "Made in USA" delta?

The Big Crank is all I've ever used. From what I've heard ,they are from E Penn Batteries. Same battery HD uses.
