    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

New small sealed battery

  • Start date Start date
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.

been using the battery for a few weeks now, it works fine, no problem! Its tiny and only $33!

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! :eek: 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
 
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!
