  • Battery Upgrade

    Did anyone tried to upgrade the stock battery of their bike with similar battery dimensions but with higher voltage and amp specs. I've a gixxer sf and planning to upgrade the battery to make the bike withstand led headlights, indicators, highway led's without any electrical prob. Theoretically thought this, not sure if practically possible without any bugs. Any info or help would be appreciated. Thank you!

    Approved!

    It is possible to fit a higher rated battery or even a slightly larger unit provided you make necessary changes to the battery cage.
    Apart from the battery, ensure you use a relay for every non OEM electrical mod you do to the bike to safeguard other systems in case of a failure.

    P.S - any non OEM fitment will most probably cause you to lose out on warranty. In case it is out of warranty, you have a free hand.

    I couldn't see a similar thread with basic search on the forum. In case someone sees a similar thread, do PM any of the mods so that this thread can be merged.
