9/12/2023 0 Comments Odyssey battery dealers![]() BTW, my BMW dealer would charge $35 to install my battery. I don't want to find out at the last minute I'm missing something I need to do the install myself. I am not sure if they are included with the PC680, but for $5-6 I'll order a set to be sure. So I ordered through Amazon, and also order a set of the "L brackets". I found a PC680 locally for $150, several on the i'net for about $130, and the least price I found today is Amazon at $104. I asked about Odyssey, he said the early ones had some problems but he hears the current ones are fine. That's the only battery they have for the Beemer. A new "BMW OEM" battery installed is $178. Edited Decemby racer7Ĭhecked with the BMW dealer. A little while I ago I recovered a stone dead car battey (not even a glow on thee dome light and no starter relay click) using one of my Xtremes after other more powerful chargers failed to recharge it and that battery tests fine and is still in use. The most recent pulse chargers are sometimes capable of recovering batteries that other types will not recharge so having one in your garage can pay for itself. I suggest at some point you get a more powerful modern design like an Optimate 4 Dual an Xtreme, etc. ![]() If the battery is at all discharged, they will typically fail to recharge it though they work OK on one in good shape to maintain it. Regular Battery Tenders (there are several models) in general do not work well with Odysseys in my experience. So make a cover from a bunch of duct tape or cutting and piece of rubber tubing and taping it over the positive.Ģ) You will need to bend the retainer strap on the RT and/or insert a spacer to hold the batttery well. No track on the planet would let you through a tech inspection without one because of the potential fire hazard. I've used Odysseys for a long time in track cars, bikes, etc and they are very good indeed.īUT there are a couple things you need to remember about themġ) Safety- unlike the BMW battery, Odysseys lack an insulating cover over the positive terminal. Will a regular Battery Tender (not special, just the generic one), JR work correctly with the Odyssey battery?Īny other suggestions? I plan a visit to the dealer next week but do not want to pay a fortune for a mediocre battery, thought I needed to be educated here first. I see a lot here about the Odyssey battery - is the PC680 the correct one folks are using successfully? The Odyssey needs mounting brackets or something? What's that? If I get a non-dealer installed battery, I want a replacement battery to fit in the bike without modifications that might be beyond my talents (they are pretty few). I think I need a battery, but need to consider it might be something else? Bike is on warranty for a few more months.Īny idea what the dealer will charge for a replacement battery? ![]() Jump started immedately using a friend.įYI, after the ride I connected the Battery Tender Jr within 12 hours it indicated a full charge (steady green light). Then rode for about 90 minutes on the highway(using just the Gerbing), and shut off the engine for a gas stop.would not start, same symtoms as above. Connected a Battery Tender (no the junior) and 5 minutes later started fine. Yesterday after sitting for 3 days after a 3+ hour ride and without a Battery Tender Jr attached, it would not start.lights come on and such, but just a sorta "click" start noise. ![]() I've been using the heated seat, grips and Gerbing lately. Been working good but the last two times it didn't want to start even just 2-5 days after a long ride of 3+ hours. Gets ridden at least 5-6 times a month for 2+ hours on highways.
