I have a 1999 Kawaski ZRX 1100. I went from a stock battery to a Bikemaster Lithium -Ion 2.0 LiFePo4 battery seen as an attachment.
At idle the battery reads 15.1 volts and will only go as high as 15.2. When I first got it, the highest it would read is 14.7
I have a few Shorai batteries in my other bikes, and noticed on the Shorai website that its OK if a lithium battery charges up to 15.2
but NOT higher than that.
Tried calling Bikemaster and got a guy who was probably about to head to lunch. He told me "well the batteries are made in china so we
dont have any techs here, but 15.2 is fine, as long as it doesnt go above that.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Below are stock shots of the battery. The 13.2V is NOT my reading.
