Cheers for that fella,

The battery specs are for your one -

YTX5L-BS

Length 114mm, Height 105mm, Width 70mm

CCA (cold cranking amps-approx):
55 cca

Amp/hour rating (approx):
4 amps/hr

Voltage:
12 volts

GASGAS recommended (has .1amps/hr more and double the CCA so in theory should be much better however mine fails miserably) -

YTZ7S-BS

Voltage: 12 Volts
Capacity: 7 Ah
CCA: 110 A
Length: 113 mm
Width: 70 mm
Height inc. terms: 105 mm

My girlfriends Ford KA car battery (the only thing i've found that wills tart the bike from cold) -

Voltage: 12 Volts
Capacity: 45 Ah
CCA: 380 A
Length: 210 mm
Width: 175 mm
Height inc. terms: 175 mm


Now here's what the manuel says -
what the manuel says -

The operating instructions for the battery are as follows:
1. Check the battery tension while the circuit is open.
2. In case the battery?s tension is below 12.60 V, or if the storage period has exceeded 6 months,the battery has to be recharged following the instructions in paragraph. In case the tension is above 12.60 V, the battery can be installed on the vehicle without having to recharge it.
3.1. Charge mode with constant tension. - Constant tension = 14.40 - 14.70V - Initial charging power = 0.1 - 0.5 Cn - Charge duration = 6 hours minimum / 24 hours maximum.
3.2. Charge mode with constant power. - Maximum charge power = 0.1 Cn.

Going to do some tests with a multi meter tonight to see if I can get some real readings from starting of the car battery.
