battery

It went bad about 2 weeks ago wouldn't start the bike which gets run every week. Won't charge over 12.06 volts and won't start the bike even right after charging. Contacted APEX this Monday 9/19 2016. Talked with Mike the Sales Manager. He E-Mailed me a questionnaire that I filled out right then...

Replaced my rusted gas tank and in the process had dropped the fender and disconnected wiring for taillights. Working on getting everything connected right but now nothing comes on when I turn the ignition. Battery is at 100%. Fuses are fine unless there are some elsewhere than the box on top...

So I have on of the green batteries posted here, love it, recently I purchased a battery tender to usb connector for a trip, since my main usb charger had been on the fritz. Well I neglected to zip tie it down, and the usb must have come loose, so it ended up on the pipe. Melting ensued, and I...

Has anyone had any experience with these batteries. They arent cheap but if they work like the spec says it should might be worth the cost. Weight saving wont hurt either...

I am tired of having to remove my '05 V-max battery to refill the water. A pain. Has anyone tried or heard anything about the Bikemaster Tru-Gel battery? I am concerned about the 175 CCA since my Yuasas have been 200 CCA and have performed well as have my Interstates. The Bikemaster fits...

Looking for battery maintainer or jumper for my yamaha vmax, its been cold lately, so when i try to start her up in the morning the battery is dead. Many friends have suggested battery maintainers or jump starter however i live in an apartment second floor so running a cable isnt really a...

So a couple of years ago I needed to replace my battery, and here down under they are SO expensive I ended up getting a boring old wet one :confused2: Sure enough, now it's already dead and need replacing. I hate wet batteries. When I lived in the US I could get an AGM or gel for a decent...

Ok...I'm a bit short on space so the battery fitment will be interesting. Could someone tell the smallest battery that will power the max ? Or is it possible to hook up 2 seperate smaller ones ? Cheers

So, I shelled out a couple of hundred bucks for a Shorai battery; installed in on Wednesday night. The bike started wonderfully Wednesday night and Thursday. I didn't ride it on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Sunday night, I decide to take a quick spin, go to start the bike and it won't even...

is 175cca battery enough to crank max easily?

Battery Question I purchased a PC680 ODYSSEY Drycell Battery in 2010. This was supposed to be the cat's meow back in that year. Very heavy though (16 lbs) nearly twice what the OEM battery was. Lots of cranking amps and still works like new at the moment. However; I am probably pushing its...

Battery died. Threw jumper cables on it, started right up. Take battery cables off, bike dies. I let the dead battery charge via donner charging vehicle for 20min. Got a voltage of 10.5V. I take it battery is toast? Cause: Left ignition on for 7 days.

Been riding a month or so with the new MOSFET regulator. All seemed well, but I noticed the non running voltage seemed to have dropped a bit. Bike seemed to have a tiny amount of trouble cranking sometimes, too. Well, it sat over a week while I was at Thunder, and only showed 10.1 Volts at...

Which one of these batteries is the better one for a vmax? http://www.apexbattery.com/yuasa-yb16al-a2-20-5-amp-hour-motorcycle-battery.html or http://www.apexbattery.com/ub1220-12v-22ah-battery.html

Just finished an engine swap on my 86 and I hooked all the harness up and when I turn the key to ON the bike does nothing. Battery is fresh off the charger. Engine has fresh oil in it. No coolant or gas as I just wanted to turn it over a few times to prime the oil pump. No lights anywhere and...

I presently have (2) battery tender juniors, but between my bikes, trailer, and mower I need (5). I can take them all out and put them on a counter in my shop. Does anyone here use one on multiple batteries, and if so, what model? I think I am going to convert to AGM batteries as they...

Went to start her up this past weekend to take advantage of the nice weather we been having here in Florida & nothing, no voltage on the lith. battery. So I put it on the charger that's for this type of battery for 24 hrs. & still no voltage. I read somewhere that if the voltage drops to low...

Hey guys, How many of you are running Lithium batteries on your Max? I tried to ride to work on Friday and could not get her started. My battery is 2 years old YB16AL-A2 - Lead Acid. Checked the levels and they all looked fine. After about 6 more attempts, the battery started dying out. A...

My bike was running ragged, wouldnt idle well, etc. Boost would come on and off at wrong rpms. I thought it was the Dynatek CDI or the jet kit that I had installed and was going to replace it with stock. But my battery died on me so had to find a new one, replaced it with a yuasa 20amp that we...

Hey guys! I came across this problem only yesterday. I have a new battery that was fully charged 2 weeks ago. I was using the bike to commute to work on a daily basis (a couple of miles really). Lights and all electronics work as they should. Lights do not dim when rpms are low. DUring the...
