It's so wierd. my other batter just totaly sucked. i would charge it and then once i got to where i woud ride like 15 mins away is was dead lol. got to be a pain. so i went fleet farm lol its a wisconsin store, and got an energizer battery. put it all togather charged her up and went out and felt a pretty noticabel torque increase in low end? it's wierd to think that a battery could do this!!

increased power boosted by a fresh battery and properly working stator will give full spark. id say your old battery was pretty weak for you to notice the difference

Im sure Pappy will correct me if Im wrong, but you had better check the condition of your stator. If you battery is dead after 15 minutes of riding, but will still take a charge from a battery charger, your stator may need rebuilt.

i think he means he would charge it then haul the atv 15 mins away to the riding spot,then it would be dead.
