Big crank battery question
04/11/08 at 07:31:27
I am looking to replace the original battery in my 2007 savage with a Big Crank.
The big crank website only cross-references up to a 2002 LS650.
Does anyone know if that model (ETX15L) would be suitable for a 2007
ALso, what mods (if any) need to be made to make it fit?
Thanks

Contact them,they are good people to deal with.Mine are older,but I recall guys putting them in newer bikes with no problems,should be no mods needed.

Except for flattening the 'inside' tabs on the terminals?

Ditto. Just flatten one side of each connector with a pair of pliers and shove it in. Out of the box to a running bike in about a minute.
The '07 is the same as the '86 as far as the battery goes.

OK-thanks for the info.
One last question-obviously there is no need for the breather tube with the big crank...right??

1. last questions regarding the big crank-
1.) Does a battery tender attach to the terminals in the same way as on the orginal battery? I am talking about the leads you leave on permanently, not the aligator clips. (I am concerned since the terminals on the big crank are so large.)
Thanks again.

If they're the ring connectors - shouldn't be any problem -
doubt that one need to use such a thing - the self discharge rate is very low on a AGM battery - might get a little low if you didn't use it for 6 months - normal flooded cell battery is close 10% per month at least - these are more 1 or 2%
