[QUOTE="MrZappo, post: 1222125, member: 62424"] 10 is borderline. New ones hang between 11 and 12. It is close. Given the ongoing troubles he has had and the fact that it went up to over 14 volts as soon as it started is enough evidence to call the battery suspect. The rise to over 14 volts would mean that the stator and regulator are healthy and should be charging the battery. In any event I'd do the battery and get a tender (yuasa is my personal favorite and are only about $30 on amazon) . Cheap insurance and helps to determine battery and charging system health. When I get home, I plug it right in. If it shows "charging" for more than 5 mins or so, I can tell something is amiss. [/QUOTE]
