Batteries for BMW R1300GS & Adventure

All Bikes

Gel battery "Bike Power" or "Landport" in order to provide enough power for the start and all other consumer circuits. Developed for the highest requirements! All batteries have to be charged before first use.

The energy taken from a battery must be replenished immediately. Batteries begin to sulfate (destruct themselves) at 12.4 volts. If you drive little, please check the battery every 6 weeks and be sure to recharge it from 12.5 volts - otherwise there is a risk of loss of performance and a significantly reduced service life! Connect seasonal vehicles to a suitable trickle charger!

Attention: The battery guard wire of the original lithium battery of the BMW R1300GS & Adventure must be closed with a dummy plug (see article 7678400)! The red arrow in picture 2 shows where the plug must be inserted for this.

Questions about this article

How much power does a Gel Battery have?
For the exact value please refer the product description. A gel battery brings about 3 times more starting current as a normal battery.

What is the life span of a Gel Battery?
With proper care and maintenance for many years. Proper maintenance is, as with a normal battery, to load the battery during extended holding time (longer than 14 days) with a suitable Battery Charger (for example Optimate). Charging current with a gel battery is max. 1A.

Can I use my car battery charger?
No, gel batteries have to be charged only with appropriate chargers (for example Optimate). Loading with normal chargers destroys the gel battery. (Charging current max. 1 A)
