actually, thinking on that more, will that test work considering when i turn the key im getting no ignition lights at all....therefore it wont be drawing any power. would i be better off taking the battery into a battery shop to get it tested?

My L3 ZXR did the same thing
And it was the contacts in the ignition barrel

have you called up any bike wreckers?
Not that it matters but the 9R, 6R, and ZZR6 all share the same part
