You know the spec sheet is about to get real when Ryan F9 is in the bibliography and you bring an engineer (your dad) into the mix for good measure. Very informative, thumbs up to you and your support team. Keep it up and keep on riding, sis! 😄🤘
Agreed! I would also love a video of her dad talking about what he has learned working with batteries for so long, which batteries he has determined to last the longest in different climates, if you can actually recondition batteries and still have any reasonable life expectancy afterwards.
Thankfully my master's was on the internal resistance on batteries. I'm an Electrical and electronics engineer, respect to your dad and his excellent taste in music. I know exciting science stuff !
I was just thinking this morning how I hadn't seen a video from you in a while, then boom here it is. I definitely still try to ride in the cold as long as there's no ice involved. Lithium is such a gimmick unless you really need the weight savings. Great topic.
Great video.. it makes a big difference when you know that the person giving the advice is very reputable. Thanks again for putting the video together 👍 👍
On my old bike I changed the original acid battery to a GEL battery and I always trickle charge the battery on the bike for the entire winter (4-6 months when storing it in a cold garage down to minus -28 Celsius in Sweden) - "Tecmate Optimate 4 battery charger" and that new battery is still good as new after 7 years of riding but I also changed "back then" to 16watt LED headlight instead of 55 watt halogen so it is pulling less energy from the battery and holding the charge better than the old acid battery that died all the time.
Very cool that you had your expert dad in the video 👍 I'm the dad of a cycle riding daughter too and just bought my first bike and can't wait to ride with her.
Also if you plug in a good trickle charger. You can keep an agm battery for 8 years. And you dont need to pull the battery out in a garage that drops below zero during storage. When the charge sense the battery dropping below 12.8v. It will start trickle charge again. But your dad is completely right about ryan’s video. So big thumbs up to your dad. It was much better info for layman’s.
hey lali, lightness is everything.. you dont need to be motogp to appreciate the weight savings. also every little helps :) enjoy the ride and thanks to your pops for dropping in with the knowledge
Honestly the only thing I've seen in a battery that made me go, "Oh, yes, I want that..." is self-jumping batteries. They reserve a bit of juice if you leave your lights on (I've done this multiple times) so if you come back to a dead bike you can push a button on the battery and off you go. That to me is a reason to spend more on a battery.
Absolutely, that's why I never turn my bike off with the kill switch, I always use my key (and I lock my forks for good measure). I've done it for years, never came back to a dead battery. But yeah, those self-jumpers are amazing, I'll likely get one in a few years, if I still have my 650 - I may upgrade to a Z900 though...
This is the only reason I went for a lithium (Antigravity), for this restart feature. Haven't needed to test it out yet but nice to know it's there. I disconnect it in the winter, bring it in the house, and throw it on the charger once a week or so.
I am glad to see a fellow winter rider! Yes I ride year round in Montana and Iowa. if it's 40 degrees and dry roads I'm out there. But I have ridden to Patriot Guard Missions in the snow. Hot Hands sewn into pockets on the top of light weight cotton gloves keep my hands toasty and my heart from ever feeling cold blood being pumped back to it. I/E HYPOTHERMIA! Two of my bikes have 5 year old Interstate batteries and still start right up year round, maintenance is the key. Thank You to your Dad for his expertise. I look forward to seeing you out there in the snow young Lady. You are in my prayers for your safety. Hoka Hey
I generally tell people automotive batteries last 2 years, no matter the warranty. This is in central California where summers hit 115 and winters get into the 20s or even teens. Anything beyond 2 years is bonus time. My bike battery is going on 3 years so far without issues. I’m expecting it to fail any time, but I’m a year-round rider, so it gets maintained purely by accident.
Great channel! The cold weather has sent me into a motorcycle video binge. I started by watching almost every F9 video and then clicked on one of yours that was suggested. Glad I did. Keep up the good work! Cheers! -a fellow 2019 MT-07 riding STEMer
Personally I’ve been using gel cell for the last four years. I am an trained auto tech and diesel tech so I have insight on the topic. Pennsylvania winters at between 25 to 15 degrees F. I didn’t have an issue. I went an entire year only on a bike and my wife’s car in snow. Good video keep up the good work. And good to see a local rider making videos
Hi Lali, lithium batteries have a built in charging circuit, because voltage and current provided by the generator of the bike wouldn’t be correct for simple Li-ion elements in series/parallel . So it’s another device that could break. I know that it’s really far from this topic, but I’ m happy and sad at the same time because I made some awesome mods on my little Monster 620 and today I scratch really well (or better really bad) my right muffler on the road leaning as I have never been able to. I would also like to pay tribute to Valentino Rossi, who recently announced his retirement, so I would like to send everyone his message of peace: WLF !!!
100% spot on, 99% of riders have batteries go bad because they don’t maintain them! Maintain your battery and you can get 4-5 or more years! Also, heat is just as bad as cold! In Texas we have batteries go bad with heat and loss of internet fluids if they aren’t sealed!
In the UK in February last year I was riding in -10C and -5C in sleet coming down and ice on the roads. That's why I've changed the battery on my drz400 commuter to a £100 lithium battery 👌
Wow, lots of time on batteries. I looked briefly into lithium and determined there really wasn't much to gain. I replaced the oem with another oem and simple use one of those trickle chargers all the time due to temp swings. When the the bike is stored in winter, I just pull the battery and leave on the battery maintainer. From CT, U.S.A.
Hi Lali, this is a great thought provoking video, with great input from your Dad. Now that batteries are our future, with the demise of the ICE, in the coming years. Of course, the biggest advantage over lead acid batteries, is the no spill if you drop your bike. Quantum batteries will come, but that's way, way into the future! Thanks for the great video.💗
Very Kool that your dad helped all of us. I was going to get a lithium battery for my Aprilia RSV Factory but realized that I don't race and it RARELY drops below 40°F here in the SF Bay Area and my bikes never sit for more than a few weeks at any time. So I went with the much less expensive AGM.
7:53 so, he told you about agm's lifetime. But you've forgotten about lithium. The whole point of lithium (in adverts, at least) that though it cost several times more, it also works several times more - kinda "pay once and forget about it"
I my ninja 300 would discharge after a few months so I charge it occasionally. When I picked up a new zx6r it came with an AGM and it has been rock solid in keeping its charge as it is ridden every 4+ months. Next time I will put it on a trickle charge and disconnect a terminal
QUESTION: Why disconnect before adding tender? Virtually every tender made comes with instructions that don't mention disconnection. And come with connections that allow you to not disconnect. In what way is the current or voltage from a tender different than the vehicle's alternator? (slight exaggeration - I have 5 tenders, 3 different brands - none suggest disconnection)
Even with all your switches "off" a battery connected at both terminals will still drain slightly as compared to a battery which isn't connected. You could disconnect even just one terminal
@@AntiParallaliSure, but then I've got the charger connected to fill it back up :) I was actually concerned there might be some damage being done that I was unaware of. Disconnecting the battery can be trivial on one bike and a royal pain on another - mine is kind of in the middle. It's just annoying enough that I connect the inline connector to the battery, and it stays with the bike. It's probably less of an issue for people who ride all spring/summer/fall and just park it in the winter - I tend to ride on-off all year round. So I might go a few days or a month, but it's rarely weather dependant - unless they're predicting snow. Great video - saved me from buying a Lithium battery for no reason other than it's out there.
I have also used small 12v Li batteries to convert older 6v dirt bikes and dual sports to 12v systems. As these are all kick start I have found them Much easier to start as well in all conditions. (The 6v ignition system sees voltage like a ‘running’ engine at peak output as far as voltage is concerned so it is always putting out its best spark.) This conversion required rewiring how the stator/light coils work and 1 12v regulator and 1 6v regulator
I have had good results with existing batteries. Keep the termimals clean top charge them with a real charger. Battery Tenders seem to fail at a high rate. My wife's 2012 VStrom still has its original battery, my 750 turbo gets 8 years out of batteries, my 84 Nissan pickup got 9 years out of its last one.
Excellent content Lali, Please thank your Dad for his expertise in this area. It's a fine line between the two batteries but in principle if you don't take your of your ride and it's equipment, then your left in the cold going nowhere. Please invite your Dad back for other Mechanical bike issues, he can be the U.S. version of Fort Nine. From Central Valley California Take Care
Hi, Lali. I find out about your channel from Doodle on a Motorcycle and my only regret is that I hadn't discovered your channel sooner. Your videos are professional-looking, brief, informative, formative and all around very entertaining. I hope that more female motorcyclists join this fun mode of transport. Good luck and I look forward to your next video :)
Good stuff! I briefly considered a lithium battery when I made my last purchase, but with the specialized charger they also require, it just doesn't make sense to spend that much for relatively insignificant return.
Great video, love the dad cameo too. I am considering a Li to make room to hook up lights and such. I don't see much of a reason to switch besides that.
So this is my experience as a cold weather rider that has had both. I take the goldwing out before snow (coldest was about 10°f) the scooter has been out in snow. I use AGM now. The big difference I see is on old bikes vs new bikes. You don't need to keep the lithium on a tender all winter. I personally would pull the battery out if there's any fancy electronics, because they slow drain. The DRZ400 was notorious for having a dead battery after a month or two rising something else. I've heard unconfirmed rumors you cannot use a traditional tender on a lithium (can anyone produce hard data on this?) At the end of the day, I went back to AGM on all my batteries because maintenance is simply remember to plug the bike in for the winter. The lithium was a "fun little experiment" while I did it, but I had to remove the battery and bring it indoors on cold days.
Salutari tatalul tau! Sunt de acord cu tatal tau in ceea ce priveste bateriile. Pot confirma faptul ca bateriile Yuasa sunt de cea mai buna calitate, indiferent de tipul constructiv al acestora.
Nice in depth talk about batteries. Really useful information! Thnx! If i'd have a bike I also would ride it in winter times, not all the time I think. But since as of a few years winters here aren't crazy cold. Sometimes it drops to minus 10 or more but that's quite rare. I would have a battery drip charger on it and the bike would be inside, unless I took it to work, in that case it's outside but in a bike park area which is roofed. So I think in overall i'd be pretty safe. Great source of information thanks to this video and F9's. Nice!
I haven't had much luck with lithium or agm batteries. Cold effects them. Rather have a lead acid but my battery lays on its side. I would be better off with a super capacitor. Lithium takes forever to warm up so it can be charged. Was just up north at camp. And cold freezing mornings. Even the lithium power tool batteries are effected by cold. At home I have trickle charger. We have a large hill at camp to bump start stuff though.
Bosch tools have had lithium technology for about 8 years now , that apparently will not shut down in below Zero C / 32 F temps. The Bosch reps go around to lovations marketing their battery technology with tool batteries that are literally frozen in a block of ice ... then they break the ice apart at the demonstration and tell you to use it and see how long it runs after being frozen in solid ice . Bosch apparently has the best battery technology of any battery tool company.... and they are lithium . It's not typical lithium tech .
Only thing about the LITHIUM battery debate is when you need that quick discharge rate. Good if you have a massive car audio system (i.e lots of wattage) Makes no difference if you dont have the ability to charge it properly.
