They are both 12v batteries in the sb6. Wired in parallel.

Thanks Brian, the bike is in storage so I was taking a guess on the voltage!

Sorry Brian but not true.
There is a 6v series set up on the early bikes and a 12v parallel on the later bikes. I have one of each setup on mine.
Will look at the w/e for part numbers.

My SB6 is a late one (frame 1257) so will be interested to know! We hope to move at the end of July, so can check it then.
Cheers

It's relatively easy to tell, the Mk1 uses Suzuki clocks the later Mk2 has the split clocks
