NOS MA7-6 BATTERY 6V - Great alternative for JA-3 Honda CA95 CA160 CB92 battery

Description: NOS GS brand MA7-6 Battery. Great alternative for the rare JA-3 battery used in early Honda CB92 / CA95 / and CA160 motorcycles. (see text below for explanation) Specifications: 6 Volt10.5 Ah Post location: Right - Negative, Left - PositiveDimensions approximate: Length 145mm, Width 57mm, Height 118mmVent position: Front side Battery is shipped dry (no battery acid). Acid can be purchased at most auto parts stores. This new battery must be activated with BATTERY ACID only....Distilled water will NOT activate this new battery (yes, its happened) The correct original JA-3 battery originally used in these bikes has become very rare and very expensive if found. Here is an alternative. I have used these MA7-6 batteries successfully in several CA95 and CA160 bikes. They fit in the original battery tray and bracket well. The battery terminals come out the front so they do not interfere with the frame. The vent also comes out the front with no interference with the cover. This battery however is slightly smaller than the JA-3. It is not as long (front to back as mounted in the bike) so will leave a little gap at the front of the battery retaining bracket. The battery has foam pads from the factory, so the bike's bracket will hold it firmly in place. The original JA-3 battery is a 12 ah battery. This MA7-6 is a 10.5 ah battery. Meaning it has slightly less reserve capacity. It will crank the electric starter fine. If your charging system works properly, it will keep the battery fully charged during "headlight off" operation as well. During "headlight on" riding, it may discharge slightly and require charging after the ride. I highly recommend keeping these old bikes on a 6 volt Battey Tender continuously when not in operation anyway as good habit.
