Re: Get links to automatically open in new tab/window?

Then why is it different on other forums? I think it could be a forum setting.

How do yours open...new tab or same tab?

Get links to automatically open in new tab/window?

On every other forum I'm on (wow...do I sound like a forum addict?), when someone posts a link, and I click it, it opens in a new tab. I like that because if I end up on that tab for a while, clicking around on different stuff, I don't lose my "place" on the original forum tab. But here, t...

Re: Do I need a new battery?

Oddly, it turned green within about 15 minutes. I'm still leaving it charging overnight. It's mouldy, throw it out. you you, I believe you are correct. I have concluded that I definitely need a new battery. After multiple rides and a couple of times sitting on the tender, she's dead. Well, this wil...

Re: Morning ride = sooooo cold!

I add the inner layer and "storm collar" to my jacket and wear long johns under my jeans. Those things help, but when it's really really cold, I just don't ride.

Wow - that looks like a snake with legs!

I really want to see the blue tongue. Can you go out and find him again and get a photo of his tongue? :)

Re: The curb or the oncoming car

Good call on hitting the curb instead of the car, and I'm glad you're not injured. It's a lot easier to fix a bike than a person. :)

Re: My Bike is "Rocking" me...

I'm no tire mechanic, but I don't believe it takes much in the way of being out of balance/true to be noticeable when you ride. I see a bit of movement in that video, and it looks to me like it's more in the tire than the wheel. Can you take it to a mechanic to get a "real" opinion?

Re: Do I need a new battery?

Yep...I'll let you guys know the outcome. It's been charging for about 12 hours now. I'll do as you suggest and leave it on for 24 hours.

Re: Do I need a new battery?

You know...thinking about it a bit more...I have nothing to lose by giving my idea a try. I'll shift some things around in my garage and get the tender hooked up. Stay tuned. :)

Re: Do I need a new battery?

Quick follow-up question (I'm the OP, to refresh your memory). I honestly don't remember how long I left the battery tender hooked up to the bike a while back. Maybe a couple of hours??? Might there be a chance of reviving this battery if I leave the battery tender on, say, overnight? Or am I just r...

Re: My Bike is "Rocking" me...

I agree with the others...sounds like things are out of balance. Could be the tire or the wheel. I had an annoying "bounce" in one of my car tires, even on a brand new, smooth-as-silk highway. Tire place replaced it for free, since it was a relatively new tire they installed. That didn't h...

Interesting.

The battery tender I bought is the Battery Tender Plus Charger - 12 Volt High Efficiency/Black. Amazon link: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D ... ge_o07_s00

Re: Do I need a new battery?

Now that I know it's a problem, I'll make a point to ride it more often. The PCX is one of two bikes I now own, and I was obviously riding the other one more for a while.

Re: Do I need a new battery?

Okay, thanks for the replies. I'll see about getting a new battery. Darn...I was hoping there was something I could do to "save" it, but I certainly don't want to risk getting caught away from home with a dead battery. WhiteNoise, the battery tender was brand new...took it out of the packa...

Do I need a new battery?

My PCX hasn't been getting ridden much lately. About a month ago (after it had been sitting for a while), the battery was completely dead. I hooked it up to a battery tender, got it running again, then rode it around for an hour or so. Then a few days after that, I rode it to a dentist appointment w...

Oh my. The fuel tank is probably the last thing I would notice on that bike.
