Yamaha FJR 1300 Battery

Jim McIlvaine

No matter which generation of Yamaha FJR 1300 you own, your motorcycle is probably going to use a Group 14 battery. OPTIMA Batteries offers a powerful, lightweight lithium battery upgrade option with our QUAD14 ORANGETOP battery. Accessing this battery is not as simple as it is on some other bikes and typically involves removing the upper fairing panel, just forward of the handlebars on the right side of the bike. 

Because this battery is somewhat buried, you'll probably want to connect a charging cable to the battery, so you can keep the battery topped off whenever you're not using the bike. All OPTIMA motorcycle batteries come with our POWERLINK cable, which allows you to remotely access the battery for charging, turning the battery on and off and checking the approximate state of charge.

OPTIMA ORANGETOP motorcycle batteries also come with our CPR system, which automatically turns your battery off, if it is being deeply discharged, holding enough energy in reserve to get your bike started one more time and get you home safely. OPTIMA ORANGETOP batteries also come with a five-year, free replacement warranty.

Regardless of the battery you end up choosing for your Yamaha FJR 1300, the best thing you can do to maximize battery performance and lifespan, is to keep the battery fully charged whenever possible. We're so confident this is true, we'll add an additional year of free replacement warranty coverage to your OPTIMA battery, if you purchase an OPTIMA D1200+ battery charger at the same time!
