dead battery

Harley wont hold a charge for more then two days checked all wiring lookin for a short fond none. on off switch is really sloppy maybe thats the problem dont know cant figure it out
 
Charge the battery. Disconnect it completely from the bike and see if it self drains... OR...if you don't want to wait 2 days, insert an amp-meter into one of the battery leads and see if you have a hidden drain.

You must establish where and if you have a bike drain or if it is a battery issue.
 
How old is the battery,just sitting or riding,check battery connections at both ends of cables, is it a HD battery?????? Does battery go dead when not connected to the bike ??? Need more info. to help.
 
I know batteries, don't know much else but you may get a charge out of this.

Never store any battery on a cement floor over a long period of time.

Always store your battery in a dry cool place 50 to 70

When charging a battery always connect to terminals before plugging the charger in.

Never text your battery with your tongue.

Storing a battery on a cement floor makes no difference.... I'ts a pretty common misconception.
