What type and size of battery should I use?

Use these specifications to reorder deep-cycle batteries:

WARNING! Corrosive chemicals contained in batteries. Use only AGM or Gel-Cell batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or explosive conditions.

Type:

Deep-cycle (AGM or Gel-Cell)

Size:

U-1, 40AH or NF22

Voltage:

12 volts each

Amperage:

32 AH, 40 AH, 45 AH, 55 AH (amp hours)

To change a battery in your Victory XL:

WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.

1.Remove the seat and the rear shroud. See IX “Disassembly and Assembly.”

2.Remove the battery tie-down strap (if so equipped).

3.Disconnect the battery cables from the electronic controller.

4.Disconnect the battery cables from the battery terminals.

5.Remove the old battery.

6.Place a new battery in the battery well.

7.Connect the red battery cable to the positive (+) battery terminal.

9.Reconnect the battery cables to the electronic controller.

10.Fasten the battery tie-down strap (if so equipped).

11.Reinstall the rear shroud and the seat.

Why do my new batteries seem weak?

Deep-cycle batteries employ a different chemical technology than is used in car batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries (nicads), or in other common battery types. Deep-cycle batteries are specifically designed to provide power, drain down their charge, and then accept a relatively quick recharge.

We work closely with our battery manufacturers to provide batteries that best suit your scooter’s specific electrical demands. Fresh batteries arrive daily at Pride and are shipped fully charged to our customers. During shipping, the batteries may encounter temperature extremes that may influence their initial performance. Heat diminishes the charge on the battery; cold slows the available power and extends the time needed to recharge the battery.

It may take a few days for the temperature of your Victory XL’s batteries to stabilize and adjust to their new room or ambient temperature.

More importantly, it takes a few charging cycles (a partial drain followed by a full recharge) to establish the critical
