best battery for bikes image
Jignesh
I purchased a new Hero Ignitor three months back. I also got installed an anti-theft alarm system on it. I went on a long tour and the bike was idle for *one month* at home. After coming back, I found that the battery of the bike looked drained. I drove the bike for 4 days, hoping the battery to be recharged- but no improvement at all. Might the battery have been failed?
I doubt did the alarm system drain the battery? I am not sure about the truth. Should I remove the alarm system now? I will appreciate any guidance on it. Thanks.
Answer
3rd vote for a trickle charger. If alarm installed correctly it would not run the battery down. Motorcycle and scooter batteries are delicate compared to automotive batteries. Trickle chargers are cheap and can prolong the life of the battery for a year longer or more.

Will a battery eliminator work on my bike?
Lightnin Q
My bike has been customised slightly, various parts have been taken off and there is no longer space for a battery. the bike is a 1976 Honda CB125J, with a 6 volt electrical system and Points ignition. i've seen a few things on the internet called battery eliminators, but apparently they're for magneto ignition. can anyone tell me a bit more about them, and if one would work on my bike?
Answer
If my memory serves me the bike has a NON self exciting alternator with remote points on the cam shaft it therefore doesnot have a generator ( dc) or a magneto.
As it has this type of alternator you will need some form of battery to give you the initial impetus to fire the coil.
A battery elliminator isn't much space saving over a small sealed for life rechargable battery in fact there isn't any.
The battery you will require does not need to be that high an output especially if you are driving the lighhts directly off of the alternator or doing without lights completely
