R51/3 Batery;

According to owner's manual, this bike takes a 6 volt battery with 7Am/h. Will it make a difference if I will fit a 6 volt battery but with 12 Am/h delivery?

Thanks in advance,
Michael Steinmann.

The extra amp hours means the battery will sustain a load longer before it is exhausted. You don't say what bike you have. The higher capacity means more and/or larger plates, so the battery is probably going to be bigger than the original battery. Be sure it fits in your bike's battery holder.

OK, I see you said R51/3. I think they had a square battery, while the 12 AH battery is probably rectangular like a /2 battery.
