Low battery- Put that puppy on a tender.

Loose connections,

Check all plugs, and tighten the battery terminals with the 10mm socket, not the + screwdriver.

I believe the Yuasa batteries are regular Sealed Led Acid batteries (wett cell), not AGM's.

AGM's are actually a bit more resistant to damage from under charging then wett cell batteries.

None the less, if you let your battery sit in a low state of charge for extended periods, you are causing permanent damage to it that it will not recover from.

Tenders are a must!
I've checked all the connectors, cleaned them with contact spray, voltage of the battery is perfect, tightened the bolts of the battery and everything is working fine, except from the new starter relay

When I turn the ignition, everything is working properly. When I push the starter, the starter realay keeps on clicking away. This is very frustrating, because I'm beginning to think that KTM has sold me a new, but dodgy relay! Is this possible or do you guys think something else is wrong?
