Still need a replacement battery

I tried desulfating my Wisco battery but it didn't work for long. It just won't hold a charge. I bought a NOS Wisco and the one they sent had a crack in it so I sent it back. I was looking at Yuasa batteries but most batteries I see for Honda Dreams say they are for late touring - 1963 - 1969. I hav...

Free Batteries!

My Wisco JB2 battery died on my Dream and I tried to find someone to help de-sulfating it, but no luck so I ended up buying a NOS one. The new one they sent me had a crack in the clean bottom plastic so they sent me a replacement. So now I have the old battery that needs to be de-sulfated and a bran...

I didn't realize the batteries for the early models weren't that plentiful. I guess it couldn't hurt to try to de-sulfate the old one first. I'll let you know how it goes!

Thanks for your help. I don't know much about these kind of batteries. I've only used the sealed kind. Is there a specific type of acid to use? Auto zone sells a quart of motorcycle acid but I'm not sure if I need a certain kind.

Wisco JB 2 Battery replacement

I think my battery needs replacing in my 1962 CA 77. I can get it charged up to 13 volts, but when I try to start the bike it just slowly dies. After two attempts to start the bike, the voltage dropped from 13 down to 11. It's pretty old so I'm going to splurge on a new one anyway. I was looking on ...

Where can I get JIS Screws?

I called Ohio Cycle to get the M5 .09 x 25 JIS screws for my '62 CA77 but they have a minimum order of $20 and I don't need to buy anything else. Any other place that sells these screws?
