The old battery was definitely dead, the new one works just fine.

So then why did it die?

Batteries corrode internally over time. My Sportster batteries last about 3 years in hot Deepinnaharta, Texas. Maintenance on a Battery Tender can help over the winter storage period, but they still won't last forever.
