Motorcycle bad ground on battery or more serious issue?

So i bought this bike (94 honda magna) last year and ran great until now. Its my only vehicle at the momebt as my truck im in process of replacing trannsmission.so i hadda jump bike battery today,first time ever, and i noticed the terminal litterally broken in half and cable is hanging on by a sliver.terminal is built in battery so can really fix unless i solder or something but seem dangerous.decide to ride down to store to get new battery,scince this one real anyway.so i pop start bike and on my way. I was driving the 14 miles and while driving bike just shuts off while moving. I start it again and continue on my way. I stop on way to fill up gas,turn bike off and fill up. Just about to leave when battery dead again. Try pop starting,it starts but NOOO power. I floor gas and only getting 2000 rpm, its backfiring and sounds like **** then dies. Try pop starting over and over but no luck. They are brand new spark plugs, good gas, also i noticed while driving (may of been car in front of me idk) a rotten egg smell. But could bad ground on battery cause all this? I get hard to start but why extreme loss of power?hopefully new battery tommorow will help and save me hassle of dealing with tow. Thanks for help

Roughly how much could I get from selling my hybrid car with a dead hybrid battery?

I have a 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid with about 175k miles. I'm the second owner and there's nothing else wrong with it besides the dead hybrid battery. The battery is very expensive to replace and it's honestly just more of a financially smart decision to sell it rather than spending about 2,000 on a new battery.

It happens when I accelerate at a quicker speed it feels like the power cuts (which engine braking occurs) and then it accelerates again after 1 or 2 seconds. It usually occurs when I have 1 or 2 bars of fuel left so i believe it might be a problem with the fuel or petrol.

I did email honda and they said my chains and sprockets may be the cause to it and they need to be replaced, I'm looking to replace them but I'm afraid if after replacing them, the same p...
