I bought my 2013 in April of this year with 2000 miles on it and in showroom condition. Today I went for a ride and when I got home I dropped the sidestand which of course killed the engine. I then proceeded to go into the house forgetting to turn the key off. I discovered this maybe 10 minutes later at the most. I turned off the key and then back on and tried to start the bike. It was deader than a door nail. I will be doing a load test on it later but am also realizing that although the bike was like new it was also 4 years old so that may be the reason. I bump started the bike and after running for 15 minutes I shut it off and it started again just fine. Probably time for a new battery. I think.
