Title: Harley Davidson Battery Ad - 1955
Post by: smallengineshop on January 27, 2019, 05:19:47 PM
Harley Davidson battery ad from 1955. This battery almost looks like a gel or AGM battery, but you can see the 3 caps on the top for adding acid to the battery when its first serviced at the dealership and for adding water during maintenance. I guess its a 6 volt battery since it only has 3 caps for 3 battery cells.  The way the battery posts are positioned is odd compared to newer batteries.
