Through various circumstances that couldn't possibly be my fault I have to put a new battery in speedy. Being the cheapskate that I am I ordered one online.
Now I know there is a specific routine for properly charging a battery initially. Trouble is, I don't trust my memory on the subject.
Isn't it this?
Step 1) pour in the electrolyte
Step 2) wait 30-40 minutes
Step 3) charge at low amps (about 1) for 10-12 hours.
I think if you ride a lot, ie not just on weekends like I do, your battery will keep in good shape, unless you leave it out all winter without a BT on it. I plug mine in because I use it less. And wrecks don't count.
