It was the morning I was heading from Humahuaca, a city in northern Argentina, to La Quiaca, a city on the border with Bolivia.
When I tried to start my motorcycle, the starter motor turned for just a moment and then stopped.
There had been no problems until I got here, but I wondered if the battery had suddenly broken.
I explained the situation to the owner of the inn and decided to try connecting the battery to the car.
I waited like this for about 15 minutes, but the situation did not change and the starter motor did not start well.
I noticed that this battery is 5A
HONDA’s recommendation is 6A
I know that 12V6A batteries of this size are scarce
I waited about 30 minutes, but there was little chance of recovery, so I asked the owner if I could buy a battery somewhere and he said he sold one nearby
I was able to buy it within a block
After I replaced the battery, the engine started running strong, so I thanked the owner and headed to La Quiaca
