Battery now works!!!
I put distilled water into my dry, dead battery, then I charged it,
and it cranks beautifully and started my motorcycle!!!
The conducty thingies (anodes and cathodes?) don't go all the way down
so I think I boiled the water down to that level at which point the
contact was broken and the overcharging stopped. This is my
hypothesis. The H2SO4 didn't go anywhere because it was below that
level and has a much higher boiling point than water.
I was asking guys over at the motorcycle group and they were saying
that a lot of battery chargers are too powerful for motorcycle
batteries. Thanks for the help!!
