Battery Maintenance
It is the owner's responsibility to keep
the battery fully charged. Failure to do
so can lead to battery failure and leave
you stranded.
If you are riding your vehicle infre-
quently, inspect the battery voltage
weekly using a voltmeter. If it drops be-
low 12.6 volts, the battery should be
charged using an appropriate charger
(check with your Kawasaki dealer). If
you will not be using the motorcycle for
longer than two weeks, the battery
should be charged using an appropri-
ate charger. Do not use an automotive-
type quick charger that may over-
charge the battery and damage it.
NOTE
○
Leaving
the
battery
connected
causes the electrical components
(clock etc) to make the battery dis-
charged,
resulting
the
over
dis-
charge of the battery. In this case,
the repair or replacement of the bat-
tery is not included in the warranty. If
you do not drive for four weeks or
more, disconnect the battery from
the vehicle.
