Yes - contact the Turkish Hu communities..
there are 3 pssiblities
1) battery self discharging - sulphated .. not enough charge ... replace battery (easy fix .. but check the next two possiblities)
2) bike is discharging battery over night - you need to measure teh discharge currrent in to the bike when everything is off. (The alram would add to this .. ) Should be less than 0.05 Amps ...
3) bike is not charging the battery correctly. You mention 14.5 volts .. that is a little high .. especially if it is cold out. Possibly the reticifier/regulator is faulty .. this will distroy the battery .. even a new one .. so get it checked before you fry another battery. Battery voltage is temperature dependant .. hot = higher voltages .. cold = less voltage. I'd still want teh battery to get over 13 volts when running .. but less than 14 would be good.
------------------- And do turn off the lights when trying to start the bike - less strain on the battery will extend its life.
