nowadays i will charge the batt once in a while.. like once a month or so.. so far so gd..

Greatly depands on your riding style. below 7rpm. Ive hit 47km.. before pushing to petrol kiosk.

Don't mind what is vanson battery charger looks like? I assume if you dont ride often this is a better way to charge up the battery. If the bike is use for daily commuter, its unnecessary. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Yo Purple bro, our battery only so far the OEM one can last the longest as i guess previously some of the bros here settle for some altrernatives and dinlast as long as the original OEM, our oem battery is kind of the better grades as it is in powder form. i had mine changed when it was abt erms i think 10 months

 

10 mths you changed wad kind of batt?

[Rsexxyy]

r6 08 reserve tank can go how many km

dis is how it looks like.. beri easy to use.. juz hook up the positive n negative.. turn on.. i oso use a multimeter to check the voltage of the batt while its chargin..

 

ya.. i suppose if the bike is ridden daily it shld keep the batt healthy..

You brought your bike that time got no free servicing by hong leong or you dont want to got there?

How much you brought that charger for? Is it specifically for dry cell or wet cell or both? Our batt cannot use any type of charger or it may shorten the lifespan of the batt instead. That time my batt flat and went to shop to change after they say batt "dead" after few hours of charging. I took the original batt to hong leong and they use a special type of charger that magically revived my batt. Did a QC test on the batt and it was in healthy state. Able to last another 1 to 2 years. Reason for short batt lifespan is because when we brought our bike that time our shop didnt charge the batt fully for us. That's why so easily flat. Also not any charger can charge our batt healthily. Do not use those with high voltage that charge the batt fully in 2 hours, the batt will eventually drain out easily again. Our batt should be able to last more than 2 years in average. If it fall below 12.4v it require charging. I'm very pleased that my batt can be saved, now that I end up with two batt. Anyone interested I can sell my newer batt at low price? Btw the charger cost $300+ by yamaha. Tninking of buying one just in case..

not sure.. at most is free servicing if i am not wrong.. servicing as in labour not charge nia.. as well go my regular mech shop.. the shop sell maxima eo at $21 though.. but if 3 bottle is 21*3 but this time i changing oil fliter so as well take the package which is $75..

 

juz wanna know is it the standard price and practice for most bike shop too ?

[trixxy]

No they change eo for free except oil filter that cost $21.

i cant rem exactly.. i think it was ard $30.. i shared the cost wif another fren.. the yamaha charger costs $300+ ? wow.. too ex for me.. the reason i got the charger in the 1st place is becos i dun wanna keep buyin new oem batts..

 

yes.. the charger i'm usin now is suitable for our MF (maintenance-free) type batteries.. chargin voltage n current all ok.. alternatively there's another brand of charger "CTEK"
