Frequently asked questions

About the technology: AGM

Glass-mat batteries are sealed, with small valves that only open if pressure builds up. Motorcycles benefit from glass-mat batteries because they tolerate lean angles and vibration. A full charge now and then helps an AGM battery that mostly works part-charged.
