Please help

[MySpyder]

Can someone help me please...
Here is the situation...
I get a new battery for my bike but it starts up high idling... like 3-3.5 thousond rpm so i wait like 5 seconds turn it off and try again. its perfect. it rides great all day. Pull it in the garage and i try to start it again and i click the button and the whole bike shuts down... It wont light up or do its diagnostics test or anything it wont even light up. So i take the battery back and they charge it for 3 days. I get home and i put it in and it does the same thing but only this time i wait a little and it jumps to 5,500 rpm by its self i might add. I turn off the bike and didnt turn it back on... I think the first time it did it it messed up my battey but idk. Plz tell me whats goin on! thanx

A loose cable on the negative side would cause this. The battery wont recharge consistently while riding if the cable on the terminal is loose.

Soory for the questions but that means it didnt screw on all the way or is it something internal?

I had high RPMs when I had too much electrical draw on some 3rd party stuff (Hids, heated grips, LEDs, stereo , etc). You may want to check the output of the battery with a meter to see what voltage you are getting.

My Spyder was doing the exact same thing in Cuba-- battery was down to 5 volts.....:shocked:

Swapped the battery.. all was good--- UNTIL I tried to hook up my givi bags with the lights in them...... popped 2 fuses... limp mode... all kinds of craziness.....

Bag light wire was frayed and shorting out.

Do you have any accessories that could be shorting out?

Hey thanks for the compliment and sorry for the delay in replying. It could be loose at the battery terminal (under the left side, rear panel) or the terminal under the seat.
