SERVICE INFORMATIONN
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The battery can be charged and discharged repeatedly. If a discharged battery is not used for a
long time, its service life will be shortened. Generally, the capacity of a battery will decrease after it is used for 2_ 3 years. A capacity-decreased battery will resume its voltage after it is recharged but its voltage decreases suddenly and then increases when a load is added.
When a battery is overcharged, some symptoms can be found. If there is a short circuit inside the
battery, no voltage is produced on the battery terminals. If the rectifier won‘t operate, the voltage will become too high and shorten the battery service life.
If a battery is not used for a long time, it will discharge by itself and should be recharged every 3
months.
A new battery filled with electrolyte will generate voltage within a certain time and it should be
recharged when the capacity is insufficient. Recharging a new battery will prolong its service life.
Inspect the charging system according to the sequence specified in the Troubleshooting.
Do not disconnect and soon reconnect the power of any electrical equipment because the electronic
parts in the regulator/rectifier will be damaged. Turn off the ignition switch before operation.
It is not necessary to check the MF battery electrolyte or fill with distilled water.
Check the load of the whole charging system.
Do not quick charge the battery. Quick charging should only be done in an emergency.
Remove the battery from the motorcycle for charging.
When replacing the battery, do not use a traditional battery.
When charging, check the voltage with an voltmeter.

BATTERY REMOVAL
Pull right the lock lever and pull up the seat at the rear. Remove the battery holder, by removing the mount bolts. (Make sure the ignition switch is oFF)
Remove the battery by removing the bolt. First disconnect the battery negative (-) cable and then the positive (+) cable.
The installation sequence is the reverse of removal.
BATTERY VOLTAGE (OPEN CIRCUIT VOLTAGE) INSPECTION
Remove the seat. Disconnect the battery cables. Measure the voltage between the battery terminals.
Fully charged : 13.1V Undercharged : 12.3V max
Lock Lever
Seat
When disconnecting the battery positive (+) cable, do not touch the frame with tool; otherwise it will cause short circuit and sparks to fire the fuel.
Bolts
Battery Holder
Negative (-) Cable
Positive (+) Cable
First connect the positive (+) cable and then negative (-) cable to avoid short circuit.
Battery charging inspection must be performed with a voltmeter.

CHARGING
Connect the charger positive (+) cable to the battery positive (+) terminal. Connect the charger negative (-) cable to the battery negative (-) terminal.
Charging current : Standard : 1.2A
Quick : 3.0A
Charging time : Standard : 5_ 10 hours
Quick : 30 minutes
After charging: Open circuit voltage: 12.8V min.
Keep flames and sparks away
from a charging battery.
Turn power ON/OFF at the
charger, not at the battery terminals to prevent sparks near the battery to avoid explosion.
Charge the battery according to
Quick charging should only be done in
an emergency.
Measure the voltage 30 minutes after
the battery is charged.

CHARGING SYSTEM
SHORT CIRCUIT TEST
Disconnect the ground wire from the battery and connect an ammeter across the battery negative (-) terminal and the ground wire. Turn the ignition switch OFF and check for short circuit.
If any abnormality is found, check the ignition switch and wire harness for short circuit.
CURRENT TEST
This inspection must be performed with an electric tester when the battery is fully charged. Warm up the engine for inspection. Connect the electric tester across the battery terminals. Disconnect the red wire from the fuse terminal and connect an ammeter between the red wire lead and the fuse terminal as shown. Attach a tachometer to the engine. Start the engine and gradually increase the engine speed to measure the limit voltage and current.
Limit Voltage/Current:
13.5_ 15.5V/0.5
A max.
If the limit voltage is not within the specified range, check the regulator/rectifier.
Connect the electric tester positive (+) terminal to ground wire and the tester negative (-) terminal to the battery negative (-) terminal.
