Hi gents and thanks in advance.
I am new to having a bike over the winter as I normally get rid of it, but Unfortunately I have to keep my 06 tuono outside, it's got about 200 quid worth of cover on it and is hooked up to a trickle charger but took it out the other day after a couple of cold nights. Started it up no problems, but then as the revs dropped it just cut out, this happened a few more times and eventually I had to rev the bollocks of it and ride it around the car park at the back of my house to warm it up so it would tick over.
The battery is new, and the charger readings are good. Once out and about it was fine, stopped at the petrol station and it started back up with no problems. Could this just be one of those disadvantages of keeping it outside or could there be an underlying problem.
Plus what mods would you recommend to increase performance, I am changing the gearing but if there is anything else you would recommend I'm all ears
Thanks muchly
