Hi, "My motorcycle has 40AH GBS cells of which I use only 2 1/2 C and the cells are still doing great 3 1/2 years later. "
To give us some terms of reference, what does your M/C pull in amps at a steady 50mph and 70mph (if you go that fast!) and on strong acceleration? And how many miles does 3.5 years equate to, please? Regards, MW.
