I'm also looking for a new battery for the Monster. The previous one (admittedly not a very expensive one) I bought just before the Weekender last year so it's less than 12 months old. It's been removed from the bike over winter but left in the garage. It's now scrap. Would it be worth returning this? It hasn't been on a Optimate through winter however so I'd guess I'm at fault? I thought that left to its own devices it shouldn't be goosed now?
Regarding the Optimate question my Panigale has to live connected up. It's got a tracker so would get the battery flattened in a week or two otherwise.
