What is the proper way to put acid in a new motorcycle battery?

Get a flashlight and look into the fill holes in the top of the battery. See those plates in there? Slowly add acid to each fill chamber until the acid barely covers the top of the plates. Go do something else for 5 minutes, and recheck the acid level. You will find it dropped a bit. Add more acid until the plates are barely covered. Put your fill caps on and place the battery on a battery charger. After this, you top the battery up to the top of the plates with DISTILLED WATER ONLY. There you go. Done.
