    Doh!!

    Some of you may remember (I try to forget!) when my GS550 broke down in November (?).
    Tonight, I went out to look at a few things,(possible bad wires) tinker around, etc. I hooked up battery cables up, and the bike wanted to fire up! No tank, but turned over great. I decided to take out the battery. It was kind of dark outside, and once I got in, it looked like it had very little acid. And, lo and behold, THAT was my problem!
    Last weekend, the GPz died on me as well. Same thing. I forget to look at the battery. I just ride it every day taking it for granted.
    Lesson Learned!!:-D (A VERY expensive way!!)
