Please note: This battery should never be fitted on it's side. It is only suitable for vertical fitment
Further research by GS-Yuasa shows that 95% of alleged problems occurring with batteries that have been in service for more than a couple of months and have been left standing without charge are caused by SULFATION. This is a condition where a crystal like material forms on the lead plates. When this chemical reaction happens, it is impossible to restore a full charge and the battery has to be replaced. This is NOT caused by a faulty battery, it is a fault with maintenance. Please ensure batteries are kept charged on a suitable charger when not in use
- Most problems with batteries today are due to improper initial activation
- Newly activated batteries should ALWAYS be CHARGED before you install them into any motorcycle, otherwise they will lose at least 20% of their capacity
- This will definitely result in a much shorter service life or other battery problems
- Fill the battery to the indicated level
- Charge the battery for three to five hours at the current equivalent of 1/10 of its rated capacity to get a full charge.
- Failure caused by incorrect activation or charging is NOT a warranty issue
