On my (2015) bike, there is no battery. There is a capacitor in place of the battery. I'm not sure if the electrics are the same as the 2018-> bikes, but mine is all DC just as the newer ones.

I have had a Durbahn LifePo4 battery for more than ten years. Used it as a starting battery for my Bimota in the summer while using it for a enduro/Gasgas helmet-light in the winter. I connect the lamp directly to the battery, no connection to the Gasgas circuit. Earlier, I used a home-brewed lamp with a 35WHID kit, but wanted something lighter.

The new lamp is a Lumonite, normally running off a Lumonite battery. Hence, I use a DC-DC converter built for that particular lamp. One day, I forgot to disconnect the battery from the converter after turning off and disconnecting the lamp from the power supply. A couple of weeks later I found it in the car, the battery completely discharged. The end of a perfectly good battery, due to a small current drawn even when not in use.

So then I need a new battery...

Obviously you have your electric start disconnected.Yes you can remove the battery if you put a cap in its place ,but your starter won't work.If you didnt use the cap ,you would fry the electronics

Yes, my EC200 is a kick-start only model. And was delivered that way. I have never felt the need for an electric starter on that bike, as I run a Rekluse clutch and rarely need to restart it (unless I crash heavily). It will even idle for quite a while laying down. I guess its thanks to the Lectron.
