Battery storage
1. When the motorcycle will not
be used for a month or longer,
remove the battery, fully
charge it and store it in a cool,
dry place. Completely recharge
the battery before reinstalla-
tion.
2. If the battery will be stored for
longer than two months, check
the specific gravity of the fluid
at least once a month and fully
recharge the battery when it is
too low. Replenishing the battery fluid
A poorly maintained battery will
corrode and discharge quickly. The
battery fluid should be checked at
least once a month. The level
should be between the minimum
level and maximum level marks.
Use only distilled water if refilling
is necessary.
