Charging And Maintenance Of The Battery During Winter Storage - Ducati STREETFIGHTER Owner's Manual

Charging and maintenance of the
battery during winter storage
Your motorcycle is equipped with a connector (1) to
which you can connect a special battery charger (A)
(battery charge maintainer kit part no. 69928471A
available from our sales network). Connector (1) is
located under the rider seat, on the left side.
To access it, remove the rider seat as described in
chapter "Removing and refitting the seats".
Attention
The electric system of this motorcycle is
designed so as to ensure there is a very low power
drain when the motorcycle is OFF. Nevertheless, the
battery features a certain self-discharge rate that is
normal and depends on ambient conditions as well
as on "non-use" time.
Important
If battery is not kept at a minimum charge level
by a suitable battery charge maintainer, sulphation
may occur and this is an irreversible phenomenon
causing decreasing battery performance.
