Dead batterie on my 2017

This was the first time I used my NOCO booster starter and it worked perfectly as the bike started immediately.

This morning I removed the batterie and although I bought the bike in July 2017 the batterie was made on Feb. 02 2017 , so close to 4 years old.
When I used my very useful Testmate Sport batterie tester it showed that the batterie was bad and needed to be replaced. I ordered a new one from Honda Southern Power sport in Chattanooga : OEM Yuasa for just about $220 including shipping. I normally replace them anyway at 4 years old but was surprised that this one did not make it that long.

Another useful and cheap tool to use is the Testmate mini voltage checker , if you have a SAE connector on your batterie post than you just plug it into this and you can see cranking and charging volts.

I asked our good friend Cormanus again if he would be so kind as to attach some pictures my wife send to him with the testers I used.
By now I do not just owe Cormanus a 12 pack but I owe him the whole brewery !!!
Thanks Comanus for your help once again.

This is exactly what happened to me last month. The OEM battery in my 2017 EX just died. It had seemed slow to start a week before, so I put it on the charger and it seemed fine - then next week, nothing.
