Battery

The battery insta lled in this vehicle

is a sealed type, and the sealing strip

should not be remove d at any time af-

ter the specified electrolyte has been

installed in t he battery for initial service.

It is not neces sary to check the battery

electrolyte level or add distilled water.

However, in order to m axim ize bat-

tery life and ensure that it will provide

the power needed to start the motor-

cycle you m us t properly maintain the

battery’s charge. When used regularly,

thechargingsysteminthemotorcycle

helps keep the battery fully charged. If

the motorcycle is only used oc ca sion-

ally or for short periods of time, the bat-

tery is m ore likely to discharge.

Due to their internal composition,

batteries continually self discharge.

The discharge rate depends on the

type of battery and ambient temper-

ature. As temperatures rise, so does

the discharge rate. Every 15°C (59°F)

doubles the rate.

Electrical ac cessories, such as digi-

tal clocks and computer memory, also

draw current from the battery even

when the key is switched off. Combine

such “key-off” draws with hot temper-

ature, and a battery can go from fully

charged to completely discharged in a

matter of days.
