    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Battery question

Hi a friend asked me to have a look at a battery on amazon in this link it reads to me it is a AGM battery
the price is very cheap (maybe to cheap) or the pro one here I think they are made in the USA.
Does anyone have any experiance with this make or any opinions on the quality?
if they are any good I would see if I can find one for the Gs 850gx.
or the one Here

perhaps not for the Gs850 it has a 14 amps if I am correct.

Looks like a viable candidate, but you do need to change two things about it:
1. More amps. That one is a 12 amp-hour battery, stock is 14. Some AGM batteries can pack 16 amps in the same size package.
2. Reverse the polarity. The positive terminal needs to be on the right.
