New experience for me. While riding my bike down the road, it suddenly began to cut out and finally just died. My mechanic said it is a dead battery. I've had cars and bikes fail to start because of a dead battery, but never have I had an engine stop running while driving because of a dead battery. And this battery, even though it had about 14,000 miles on it, was only one year old and kept on a trickle charger all the time except during a two month trip this summer.
