 how long would one expect a fully charged yuasa to stay charged without the bike being ridden.after 3 weeks of not been ridden it needs charging its 1-half years old .im told these new sealed batteries put out more amps any thoughts would be apreciated

My AGM FLH (big azz) tractor battery is a couple seasons old. My motor has 185-190 cranking psi and a questionable lifter.  3 weeks wouldn't kill it dead but she'd better fire in the first two turns or we're all done. I have been riding a lot less this season so I keep her on a tender.

thats my problem it will want to fire on the first go but after that the battery will just get slower and slower

I charge the  battery's in the bikes  every couple weeks all year, I use a 1.5 amp charger. No troubles as long as I don't forget.

Mine sits through winter and starts fine in the spring.  However, it's only kick start, not a great draw for point ignition.
