BATTERY STORAGE:
When preparing the motorcycle for a longer period of standstill, remove the
battery and recharge it. Storage temperature: 0 - 35°C (30 - 95°F). Do not
expose to direct sunlight.
Charging the battery
Remove the battery and check the charging level. Use a voltmeter to
measure the voltage between the battery poles (off-load voltage).
Accurate results can only be obtained if the battery has neither been charged
nor discharged during a period of 30 minutes preceding the measuring.
Recharging is not required if the voltage exceeds 12.4 V.
Recharge if the voltage is below 12.4 V.
CHARGING:
Charge the battery for 5 to a max. of 10 hours with 0.9 amperes and a
max. of 14.4 volts.
For a quick charge, do not charge the battery longer than 1 hour with 4.5
amperes and a max. of 14.4 volts.
