Servicing Your Honda
Your battery is a maintenance-f ree type
and can be permanently damaged if the
cap strip is removed.
Battery
Charging,
Battery Storage,
Your motorcycle has a maintenance-free
type battery. You do not have to check the
battery electrolyte level or add distilled
water as you would with a conventional-
type battery.
If you do not expect to ride your
motorcycle for at least two weeks, we
recommend you remove the battery, or at
least disconnect the battery cables
(negative cable first).
Electrical accessories use current from the
battery, even when the ignition is OFF.
Limited operation also allows the battery
to discharge. If you have electrical
accessories on your motorcycle or do not
ride frequently, we recommend that you
charge the battery frequently (see
page
).
If you plan to store your motorcycle, see
page
.
If your battery seems weak and/or is
leaking electrolyte (causing slow starting
or other electrical problems), see your
dealer.
Battery posts, terminals and
related accessories contain lead and lead
compounds.
