Title: batteries ?
Post by bobdog on 11/27/14 at 20:20:42

What mini batteries work best for my 09" S40 ??

After looking up agm and earth x, it seems if I order a replacement it will be the same size as stock?

if that's not the mini bat you're thinking about... then search it.
earthx is one.

Asking as a nubie, what is the benefit if a smaller battery?

The small batteries are used when you want to relocate the battery so that you can change the look of the Savage. Moving the battery, removing the air box, removing the side panels allows you to make a big open area behind the carb for a look that fits the Bobber or Cafe' look. The mini battery change does not provide improved performance - it is mostly for looks.

I put an EarthX in my bike. LiIon batteries have about half the amp hour rating as conventional batteries - but seem to work fine as long as your bike is not used in really cold climates and your bike starts easily. If you discharge a LiIon battery.........they instantly are ruined. They hold a charge a long time and battery tenders are not recommended.
