Any oil coming out of the spark plug holes when cranking it over with the plugs out?

Yea, lifespan of powersports batteries can vary. Some are no good when they are new, and I’ve had one that lasted 8 years. I’ve seen a lot of people saying mid not to leave them in the tender, just put them on a 2amp charge every couple of months when not in use and store them in a cool spot. If you have a multimeter check the volts at the battery while cranking

I just had to have my battery replaced under warranty.
