A Newbie with a battery question....

[Entertwainer]

need to replace the battery on my CG125, came across this one:

https://www.wemoto.com/bikes/honda/cg_125_w/98-00/picture/battery_motobatt_sealed_high_torque/

it mentions its high torque - but i'm left wondering what this means and will it affect anything on my bike?

and when it says maintenance free - does this mean no topping up of battery acid? will it still need trickle charging over the winter months when its left alone?

advice/info appreciated....

produces a lil extra cranking power, won't need topping up.

Motobatt are known to be good reliable batteries

won't affect anything else on the bike

lol, no it wont harm the bike,
they are just better than standard wet batteries,
its a glass matt battery, so even it the battery is smashed it wont leak,
and you can't top them up, you never need to,

while they do hold there charge for a lot longer than a lead acid, its always good practice to ocassionally trickle charge the battery, or atleast go for a blast,

i had a agm battery in my vf1000 (absolute pig to start) and even after 6 months of sitting uncharged it would still easily turn over the bike

This battery is fine for your cg. You don't need to top it up etc. You will need to trickle charge it if the bikes laid up for long periods.

I have however partially killed my motobatt battery when I rode to manchester and the regulator died completely draining the battery as I rode, doesn't hold as much charge now :\
