Maintenance

Battery

The motorcycle battery is a sealed, maintenance-free battery. Do not remove the battery cap

strip for any reason. Keep the battery connections clean and tight at all times.

Battery electrolyte is poisonous. It contains sulfuric acid. Serious burns can result from contact with

skin, eyes or clothing.

Antidote:

External: Flush with water.

Internal: Drink large quantities of water or milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or vegetable

oil. Call physician immediately.

Eyes: Flush with water for 15 minutes and get prompt medical attention.

Batteries may produce explosive gases.

• Keep sparks, flame, cigarettes, etc. away.

• Ventilate when charging or using in an enclosed space.

• Always shield eyes when working near batteries

• KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

Battery Removal

1. Remove the seat and left side cover.

2. Remove battery cover retaining nuts, and remove the cover.

WARNING! Improperly connecting or disconnecting battery cables can result in an explosion and

cause serious injury or death. When removing the battery, always disconnect the negative (black) cable

first. When reinstalling the battery, always connect the negative (black) cable last.

3. Disconnect the negative (-) battery cables (black cables with ends exposed) first.

4. Disconnect the positive (+) cables (cable ends are covered with a red boot).

5. Slide the battery out.

Battery Charging

1. Clean oxidation from battery posts and cable connectors with a wire brush. Wash the

posts and cable connectors with a solution of one part baking soda to 16 parts water.

Rinse with clean water and wipe dry. Apply a thin film of dielectric grease to the posts

and cable connectors.

2. Following the charger manufacturer's instructions, use an accessory battery charger or a

charger designed for use with 12-volt batteries. The charger should have a maximum

charging rate of 1.8 amps. Charge the battery for approximately 10 hours at a rate of 1.8

amps. If you use a taper or trickle charger, it will take longer to charge the battery.

3. After charging the battery, allow the battery to sit 1-2 hours before checking the state of

charge with a DC volt meter. The charge should be a minimum of 12.5 DC volts. Repeat

the charging cycle if the charge is less than 12.5 DC volts. Replace the battery if it fails

to reach 12.5 volts after the second charge.

Tip: An accessory maintenance charger is available through your authorized VICTORY dealer.
