CK1 125 Battery
« on: March 07, 2015, 06:41:13 PM »
Hi guys,
Can anyone please help me out and tell me which battery this model uses (I live in the UK if that makes any difference!). My local dealer has been unable to get one for me as yet as their suppliers don't have any in stock and apparently Kymco UK don't have any at the moment. Apparently this model uses a different battery to any other Kymco?
I phoned another dealer and he said he had one in stock. He sold me a Landport BV YB7 - A which he says is what it says in the book but when I told him what the other dealer said he didn't seem so sure. I looked at Landport's website and that battery is for a Pulsar. The CK1 125 isn't even listed on the site as seems to be the case with all the other parts sites I have searched on.
So if anyone out there can tell me what battery is definitely on the CK1, I can return this battery (if it's the wrong one) and get the right one. If anyone is in the UK and knows where I can get one from that would be an added bonus. Thanks guys.
Better late in this world than early in the next. Ride with care.

1. What battery came out of there?

2. Did you look in your manual or download a manual?

3. Did you look it up in the parts diagram online?

4. If all that fails it is probably the same size as other Kymco 125's use, make sure your positive post is on the correct side.

5. Last is measure your battery box and find a battery from Yuasa's website that fits that size and post orientation.

One of the 5 above will get you there.

Thanks for that TLRam1,
The answers to your questions are as follows:

1 I bought the bike off ebay. It is a brand new bike that has been used as a display item and there was no battery with it.

2 There was no manual with it and I have been unable to find one to download

3 There seems to be very little information about this particular model online

4 The battery I have is suitable for a Pulsar 125. It is a very tight fit in the battery box and I am struggling to get the fixing bolt back in.

5 I will do this and look for a suitable Yuasa battery. The one I have is a Landport.

Thank you so much for your help and advice  :D
