    Broken down in Wairoa

    Due to battery failure ( 12n12a - 4a-1) am broken down in Wairoa.
    Have contacted Repco and Supercheap in Gisbourne, Napier and Hastings but no one stocks this battery. Fitted new battery on 27th February. looks like a dud. Any suggestions on how to get a new battery to Wairoa?

    All Sorted

    The battery was sorted the next morning and we carried on with the ride.Covered all the ground i planned to take Fleethaul on and arrived back home tonite and with a quick trye change and a new battery from Sheilds Motors,Thanks Scottie for the service after a quick call from Taupo this morning.Jeff will be heading south after a look around parts of the North Island that is seldom seen by most ADV Riders.
