I have the Alien Motion AM4-XP...
I know it's a battery, but how do you like it? I'm thinking about going with this one too....
So, I understand the weight savings. If you've made the change to a lithium battery, are you
*Racing,
or
*Just doing it for gratuitous weight savings/s**ts and giggles, having jettisoned a functioning lead-acid battery?
I keep thinking of one, but it's a fair bite of a shock that I really need worse...
Just askin'.
Would a 150CCA battery suffice? Also, how do you charge these batteries?
I just installed my Alien Motion AM4 battery...its literally the size of a cocktail glass. It weighs about the same to.
I had to yank on the positive side cables a little bit to get more length, and as I screwed on the terminal connections the wire "brackets" flattened out. Pushed the covers over each side, strapped it back....and the bike cranked right up like normal. Maybe a little faster, but can't really tell.
For an $85 battery that weighs less than a pound, I'll accept! I'm buying the AM8 for my Yamaha bolt.
What does the stock battery weigh? I have been looking recently at shaving some weight.
