This is a well-put-together video on the subject, however, the negative battery terminal cable should _always_ be removed first to avoid the risk of electrical shorts.
Is there a way to disconnect the positive terminal without opening up the whole thing?? A switch or something that we acess from outside ..Even i am jump starting the battery every week, when the battery drains..
sir,how long does battery last if you dont start? my int650 wont start if i dont use for a week, dont know what's causing battery discharge, it has new battery replaced last year
Man , mine on the left side I cant use 5 mm allen key as the hex screw is even smaller (probably a 3 mm allen key will fit ) and RE has only provided 5 mm allen key 🥴
Hi, just that some owners don’t have the provision for connecting the charger where they park their rides so we carry the battery home and charge it there instead. As for chargers, you’ll see many Chinese chargers like the one on this video. Works just fine. If you’re looking for a better one, Bosch has chargers. They have one which has both 12V for cars and bikes and 24V meant for trucks.
Hi, this Interceptor 650 belongs to a friend. He says there’s a battery drainage issue possibly due to the always headlight on feature. If the bike isn’t used for over a week, he’ll have to charge the battery.
Strange, that RE uses different bolts for fastening the box. They could have used the M6 cap head screws for all fasteners to give it an upmarket look.
Hi Sudarshan, that’s true. They could have used a single type across the board but I’ve seen that it is mostly a combination of the normal hex head bolts and the hex socket screw.
I have an int 650 and it’s been around a year since i purchased it from re but its self doesn’t start sometimes after not using it for 4-5 days. Is it normal with int battery? as i have replaced it with new one recently but after few months it’s happening again 😕
Brother, from the USA thank you so much. This made my battery swap as smooth and painless as it possibly could have been.
Hi, thank you so much for the feedback. 😊
Just followed the steps and it worked like a charm!!
Thank you so much for the feedback! 😊

Hi Dharmesh, unfortunately no way to disconnect the positive terminal without opening the side panel.

Have you added any accessories?
If you’re keeping it idle for more than a week, please disconnect the positive terminal.
@@GaneshBalan okay, i have no accessories connected
Just curious, what is the idel voltage post charging? Like 12V or 13.5V
Typically between 12.6 to 13V. As the days go by, the voltage gradually keeps reducing by 0.05V.

Shucks. Anyways, best to keep one Allen key set from Taparia handy.
Never thought of charging the battery at home, what charger do you recommend?

Is your battery still working fine after 8 months?
Hi, this Interceptor 650 belongs to a friend. He says there’s a battery drainage issue possibly due to the always headlight on feature.
If the bike isn’t used for over a week, he’ll have to charge the battery.
@@GaneshBalan just got my charges today.
Will test it out! thank for the info
Very nice .

@@divyanshsamariya4317 I think in that case, there might be current leakage. I am facing the same issue.
@@AnkitGiriTechLifeBeyond get a battery charger 🔌 for your bike as this problem will not be fixed because of automatic lights which doesn’t come off!
@@divyanshsamariya4317 I already have. Plus have put up a headlight off switch and a voltage indicator.
Fingers crossed.
