After recharging, wait for more than 30 minutes and
check the battery voltage with a pocket tester.
If the battery voltage is less than the 12.8V, recharge
the battery again.
If battery voltage is still less than 12.8V, after
recharging, replace the battery with a new one.
When the motorcycle is not used for a long period,
