Maintenance

173

Under normal conditions, the motorcycle

charging system will keep the battery

fully

charged.

However,

the

motorcycle is unused, the battery will

gradually discharge due to a normal

process called self discharge; the clock,

Engine Control Module (ECM) memory,

high ambient temperatures, or the

addition of electrical security systems or

other electrical accessories will all

increase this rate of battery discharge.

Disconnecting the battery from the

motorcycle during storage will reduce

the rate of discharge.

Battery Discharge During Storage

and Infrequent Use of the Motorcycle

During storage or infrequent use of the

motorcycle, inspect the battery voltage

weekly using a digital multimeter. Follow

the manufacturer’s instructions supplied

with the meter.
Should the battery voltage fall below

12.7 Volts, the battery should be charged.
Allowing a battery to discharge or

leaving it discharged for even a short

period of time causes sulphation of the

lead plates. Sulphation is a normal part

of the chemical reaction inside the

battery, however over time the sulphate

can crystallize on the plates making

recovery difficult or impossible. This

permanent damage is not covered by

the motorcycle warranty, as it is not

due to a manufacturing defect.
Keeping the battery fully charged

reduces the likelihood of it freezing in

cold conditions. Allowing a battery to

freeze will cause serious internal

damage to the battery.

Battery Charging

Warning

The battery gives off explosive gases;

keep sparks, flames and cigarettes

away. Provide adequate ventilation

when charging or using the battery in

an enclosed space.
The battery contains sulfuric acid

(battery acid). Contact with skin or

eyes may cause severe burns. Wear

protective clothing and a face shield.
If battery acid gets on your skin, flush

with water immediately.
If battery acid gets in your eyes, flush

with water for at least 15 minutes and

SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
If battery acid is swallowed, drink large

quantities of water and SEEK MEDICAL

ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
KEEP BATTERY ACID OUT OF THE

REACH OF CHILDREN.

Caution

Do not use an automotive quick

charger as it may overcharge and

damage the battery.
