Battery Installation - Triumph Rocket 3 TFC 2020 Owner's Handbook Manual

Do not use an automotive quick
charger as it may overcharge and
damage the battery.
For help with selecting
charger, checking the battery voltage
or battery charging, contact your local
authorised Triumph dealer.
Should the battery voltage fall below
12.7 Volts, the battery should be charged
using a Triumph
charger. Always remove the battery
from the motorcycle and follow the
instructions supplied with the battery
charger.
For extended
(beyond two weeks) the battery should
be removed from the motorcycle and
kept charged using a Triumph approved
maintenance charger.
Similarly, should the battery charge
fall to a level where it will not start the
motorcycle, remove the battery from
the motorcycle before charging.
