link doesnt show

I had to play around with the link, but finally got it to show.

It must be some new super-battery. Its class is listed as a 4 (a stock battery is a 10), yet still has an amp-hour rating of 12. I just looked up a different AGM battery, it was about twice the size, had an amp-hour rating of 11 and 160 CCA.

For $32, try it, let us know how it works. Just make sure your bike is in top tune.
If it does not start with the first push of the button every time, that small battery just might not have enough for a second try.

Was checking your posts to find pictures of the bike all together and you had a thread early in the day saying the battery was getting over charged.

Did you sort that out to the r/r or is that related to the extra small battery?

I would like to know too. I ordered the Exide version of the same battery this morning after looking for a super small high capacitance battery for a couple of months, and after reading the post. It should be here tomorrow afternoon and I'd like to know for sure that I won't have a battery blowing up under my seat. Talk about hotpants! Ye-ouch!

That was a r/r issue. I hadn't put the parts unlimited battery in at that point. So far this battery has worked great

Perfect!
Just what I wanted to hear, thanks a bunch!

although my bike is a 450-2 cylider

I think I should be ok, I have my bike tuned well enough it always fires on the first touch of the starter button, and if the battery doesn't quite have the kick needed, I can find enough room to hide another one on the bike somewhere, wired in parallel.

Thanks again for posting about this battery!
