Alright, I bought a brand new 2005 TRX400EX a couple months ago. The dealer needed to get rid of it and I got a great deal on it so I swooped it. This is my 1st ATV and I still know nothing about them so I am looking for a little help here.
When I 1st tried to start it at home it was pretty cold outside and I forgot to put the choke on and I kept holding down the start button and it wouldn't start for a while. By the time I rememberd that I needed to choke I choked and the engine started right up but ever since then its been a pain to start it. The battery would barley kick over the starter so I took it back to the dealer and they charged the battery yesterday. Today I tried to start it and the battery is like already dead so i'm guessing its not holding a charge. If the dealer wont put a new battery in for me is this battery never going to hold a charge again and i'll have to buy another one or does someone know a fix to this??
