OK - got a cheap recommendation. Pull the battery again, chances are that it's a bit dirty... get a sponge and give it a good wipe down all over (don't turn it upside down or over), dry it off again with an old tea towel before replacing. Dirt + batt electrolyte can mean that it's trickle discharging across its own case, so it'll gradually go flat with the bike standing. This is only likely to be a serious problem if the battery really is filthy and covered in weird crusty chemical-looking stuff though.

On that note - if you leave the battery standing somewhere, never leave it on concrete. Wood's OK. Lino's OK. Concrete is not, it'll kill a battery in a few weeks due to trickle discharge.

Also - check electrolyte level, it should be marked on the battery side. If it's low, top up with distilled water - NOT tap water. You can get distilled out of a home dehumidifier, clean the mould and dust out of the catch tray first though.

Slightly more pricey recommendation - get a cheap multimeter (Jaycar probably) and start tracking battery voltage at the terminals, it'll tell you (and us) a lot more about what's going on.

Alright. Im a window cleaner so i have a filter that makes water into pure water will check levels and top up. Batts in good nick no crud at the top. Will get my hands on a multimeter and test charging. Rectifer(i cant spell dont judge me) has been replaced so i can rule that out.

Bit of a long shot comparing your PIMPED TLS to a POS BOBBER GN though, yours looks amazing but a bobber GN is still gonna be Be a POS bobber and never a classic, i will never sell my TLS either,

Chill dude! Why would i care if its a classic or not bobbers dont have to be a classic.
