RE: battery charge
The bike is not gonna idle when you pull the battery, it needs to have the RPM's up. Not sure how high they need to be on a 954, but higher than just idle. On my F4i, it needed to be at least 4500 RPM's.

RE: battery charge
Do not do that!! That trick worked on cars prior to say 1963 that had generators. Pulling the battery on newer cars and bikes with computer controlled devices can cause multiple shorts and even go as far as killing the computer. If you want to test it properly yourself ya need to learn to use a voltmeter.
