ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 7-33
RECHARGING OPERATION
• Using the multi circuit tester, check the battery voltage. If the
voltage reading is less than the 12.0V (DC), recharge the bat-
tery with a battery charger.

* When recharging the battery, remove the battery from
the motorcycle.
* Do not remove the caps on the battery top while re-
charging.
Recharging time: 1.4 A for 5 to 10 hours or 6 A for one hour

Be careful not to permit the charging current to exceed
6A at any time.
• After recharging, wait for more than 30 minutes and check the
battery voltage with a multi circuit tester.
• If the battery voltage is less than the 12.5V, recharge the bat-
tery again.
• If battery voltage is still less than 12.5V, after recharging, re-
place the battery with a new one.
• When the motorcycle is not used for a long period, check the
battery every 1 month to prevent the battery discharge.
