Gas,
When you refer to circuit breaker, are you referring to the chip that is attached to the battery tender? If so, then yes we checked and it was broken. What I didn't mention was that bat tender accidentally got chewed up in the belt drive that same day.....should that have anything to do with the bike not starting?

I was referring to the button on the CB... but it sounds like you have the fust instead.

The riding season is upon us gents.....

I don't think the pig tail getting chewed up would have anything to do with a destroyed battery...isn't that why there's a fuse on there...to isolate the electrical damage. As far as jumping the bike, I got confirmation from Chrome and Custom (where I bought the bike) to go ahead and jump the bike at the time....
Scotch tape was not a choice, but making the best of the situation...live and learn .
Thus far, there's confirmation the battery is fine :flag:...
I'll continue to keep everyone posted as I hear from Rock Star.
Thanks

Ummm, The Battery tender got chewed up which means either your Positive or Negative Lead were shorted together and then to the Bike, in all Likelyhood. I'm betting not only did you destroy your Battery, But your EHC is most likely Shot too, then You Jumped it? Your Lucky you didn't take the Bike you jumped it with out too.

Scotch tape has absolutley no Isolation properties fellas, You'd have been Better off Cracking the tender leads right off from the battery post if you didn't have tools.

Get a Pensil, and Roll some Black electrical tape around it and throw it in your Tool Roll. Then you can use the Pensil to write down ELECTRICITY IS NOT MY FRIEND, 1000 times, the next time your waiting for a Tow Truck. :roll:
