What is a motorcycle battery?

A battery that primarily starts the motorcycle. For this, the starter motor needs a lot of power for a short time. Important for this is the cold start power (CCA) that the battery provides, but also the characteristics. A battery with a high current reserve will start the motorcycle even partially charged, for example.
In addition, the motorcycle battery supplies the electrical consumers, since it is the only battery in the motorcycle. The more consumers are installed, especially retrofitted safety or entertainment features, the more capacity is needed so that the consumers are also supplied at idle or when the engine is off or the machine still starts after the consumers have been used.

Low-maintenance batteries can be recognised by the removable sealing plugs on the top, the vent hose and the white or transparent housing. In these batteries, the electrolyte is in liquid form, i.e. it is not bound as GEL or in fleece. They are not sealed at the factory, but are activated by the addition of battery acid prior to installation. During normal operation they lose liquid.

To compensate for the loss of fluid promptly and to avoid damage to the battery, we recommend checking the fluid level every 3 months and, if necessary, refilling the battery with distilled water up to the mark (MAX).

Tip: In case of excessive water consumption:

• Check battery box for leakage.
• Have the function of the charge controller checked by a specialist.
