Hi all,

What is the standard battery capacity (Ah) for a 1999 non electric start 500 Bullet?

Thanks

Ian

I use a little Japanese or Chinese 6 amp battery in my two enclosed in a bitumen box.

Most kick start models use a 5 AH 12 V Battery there was a change in external size around 1998 but there both 5 AH 12 Volts.

Thanks both, Would having a Boyer electronic ignition and powerbox make any difference (ie larger capacity)? Z

The standard Battery would be well up to having a Boyer electronic ignition and powerbox Fitted.
