If the battery is more than 3 to 4 years old and it has had a questionable life. ie..Sitting for long periods without being run/ not put on a batt tender. It may have test voltage of above 12.5 v but may not hold any run amperage. How was it tested? If by someone who dosent really know..Then go get another, Bikes because of their periodic run cycles are very hard on batteries,..As far as life span is concerned.
I had the same problem. turned out to be the decompression cable was loose. It acted like an electrical problem but it wasn't, Check the decomp cable.If it is loose the compression of the engine wont allow it to turn over and a boost will turn it over sometimes. easy fix.
