batteries show different readings then the ideal course of action would be to
‘balance’ the batteries (see below). The multimeter is also very useful in
diagnosing any electrical problems on the bike.
OSET recommend ‘balancing’ the batteries periodically. This can be done with a
12v smart charger, such as a Battery Tender or Optimate (available from
motorcycle shops and some automotive stores). Each 12v battery can be
charged individually this way, or they can be linked in ‘parallel’ as illustrated
below.
Parallel charging can be done for any number of batteries. The process will take
longer according to how many batteries are linked together.
