bimbamboom My Rides (4) Posted August 30, 2017 Has anyone found a battery eliminator that has worked well on 6V system on Honda XL? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph5ta Posted August 31, 2017 I dont know how much you know about the XL500 so here goes. You don't need a battery for the ignition, it runs direct off the generator on the end of the crank. You dont need a battery for the headlight and the tail light, they run direct off the generator too. You do need a battery for the brake light, horn and indicators. The 6v battery is so small and light anyway I dont know if there is much of an an advantage in doing without.... Adam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph5ta Posted August 31, 2017 I considered this when I got my XL500. I tried Electrex World who do good battery less upgrades for many old bikes. Unfortunately not for the XL500. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
