Another Battery
« on: February 22, 2023, 01:54:01 PM »
Another battery was delivered this morning this one for the Z750s. It came with the acid pack still to add. Naughty but at least you know it's brand new.

Maybe been in stock for a while. Bought my last bike battery from Eurocarparts as I thought that was the only way to get a wet vented battery.

    all my bikes  have Motobatt,

   seem good,thrive on neglect,

I only  put them on Oximate  charger every couple of months  if not used,just enough to top up,

  In my experience they don't like being constantly being charged.,had one fail  after only two years of that

Plus one for Motobatt. I collected my bikes from storage on Monday, my garage is finally dry and lined!
The 400f has sat for 3 months in a cold warehouse but had plenty of juice in the battery to start. I put fresh super-unleaded fuel in to help. 👍
