The battery is charged by a generator that runs through a regulator-rectifier. The generator outputs AC voltage and the rectifier converts the voltage to DC. The generator is normally mounted inside the engine on the flywheel.

Will a 12 volt 12 amp deep cycle battery keep your motorcycle running?

No, a 12 volt 12 amp deep cycle battery will not keep your motorcycle running. A deep cycle battery is one that can survive repeated deep discharge cycles. As the voltage reduces, however, your motorcycle may stop operating correctly, because it is not designed for this type of battery. The proper solution to your problem is to fix the cause of the charging system problem in your bike. Besides, if you check the specifications on the required battery, you will probably discover that it is rated for much more than 12 amps.
