Just taken delivery of a new MotoBatt battery for my 04 FZS1000 and it arrived apparently all charged up and ready to go - no filling it yourself and charging it first... This may be a dumb question but do I trickle charge when not in use in the normal way? Or should I just leave it...?
My advice would be to give it a good charge up before fitting it to the bike even if you believe it has already been done ? Once fitted to your bike it won't do it any harm to trickle charge it for a few hours a week to keep it topped up (if you have a good quality trickle charger that allows charging to be done with the battery in situ).
Yamaha Fazer 'the only bike you'll ever need' maybe ???
