250-500cc WR300 computer?

So I think I've got my new bike all setup, but when I set the clock on the trip computer, it reset when the bike stalled. I have two theories on this,
1. It has a little lithium battery that died since the bike is actually 2 years old and never run. I haven't run it enough to get charge in that little battery.
2. it doesn't carry over. There is no memory.

If theory one is right, does anyone have a clue how to get a new battery? If you've pulled your computer and swapped it out, I'd love to hear.

Thanks in advance

The puters use two batterys stacked on top of each other, mine were not even in mine when I got it there is a small round access panel on the underside of the computer.

Theory 2 is correct-no memory. It will only store overall miles on the bike.

There is indeed a battery in there. It was a standard watch battery CR2032 I believe. I replaced it, but it's too late to start the bike tonight to see if the clock retains.

Wait... the crappy speedometer uses two batteries? Is that why mine does the same thing?

My 2010 only uses one.

I think i read in the manual that they reset whenever power goes below 6 volts. My 11 resets everytime the bike is shutoff. I never checked the battery as the bike was purchased in march 11 so it didn't sit long.

I read something like that as well, can't remember where though. Kinda seems stupid to have a clock on the bike if every time it stalls it resets. Also, why would you have a battery in it at all if it didn't store info.

Welcome to the Husky family! Sometimes you have to wonder why................

Well, I put a new battery in it and am going riding tomorrow. I'll let you know if it does anything. Let's hope this bike doesn't confuse me too much.

Once you get a good ride on it you will forget all of the small stuff and wear a big grin for a long time....

Update: The clock does not retain even with a new battery, sorry for doubting you hogwackr.

Don't worry about it.......I doubt myself all of the time
