Gel battery

#1 Post by Matty » Sat May 19, 2007 7:28 pm

G'day folks,
A question for those who have a modified swingarm fitted and are using the thin Yuasa gel battery. What amp hour do you use?
The one I have fitted is only 2Ah cause it was the only one I could get at the time but I don't think it holds enough charge (Head light dims and indicators stop flashing when revs drop to idle). The stock battery is 5.5Ah but the closest NP series batteries are 4 or 7Ah.

Matty.

Hi I am running a 1,8AH Gel Battery with no problem, but my rear lights are LED lights. Headlight is normal 55W, all systems work fine.

regards

Wolfgang
