Decided to take the Shovelheads out for a run today. Had a great ride including lunch at the 17 Mile Pub. Both bikes ran great except Dusty didn't want to start when we stopped for gas. Determined the problem was a loose battery connection which must have been loose for a while as the voltage was too low to turn over the electric start. Good thing Dusty has a kick start because otherwise I might still be at that gas station. Checked to make sure the voltage regulator was working and (thankfully) it seems to be because the volts increase as they should when reving the bike. Now that the connections are all tight again it'll probably take a few runs to get the battery back up to where it should be.
