Warning!
• Battery shall be away from fire.
• Shut off charger switch first before or
after charging in case sparks may be
generated at connection parts, which may
result in explosion.
• During charging, please take the current
time labeled on the battery as basic time.
* Attention
• Battery quick recharging is not
recommended except in case of emergency.
• After recharging, wait at least 30minutes
and then measure the battery voltage.
Recharging current: Standard: 0.4A
Quick charging: 4.0A
Recharging time: Standard: 10-15hours
Quick recharging: 30minutes
Recharging completed: Open circuit voltage: over 12.8V
5.4 Charging System
5.4.1 Short circuit test
Disconnect the grounding wire from the battery and use a voltmeter to connect battery negative lead wire with
grounding wire. Set the switch at OFF position and check if it is shorted.
* Attention
Positive lead wire of multimeter is connected to negative lead
wire of battery.
If abnormality found, check if there is short circuit on ignition switch and main wiring.
5.4.2 Charging state inspection
While inspection, battery shall be fully charged and a multimeter be used for the test.
Warm up the engine and then install fully charged battery onto the motorcycle.
Connect voltmeter between terminals of the battery.
Remove the main fuse and connect ammeter between the two terminals.
Start engine and slowly raise RPM. Measure limited voltage and current.
Limited voltage/rpm: 14-15V (5.000rpm)
If limited voltage is beyond the specified range, check voltage regulator.
Inspect limited voltage in lighting system.
