Default What battery are you guys using with your upgraded audio?

Last year, a buddy at a toys-for-tots was playing his 6-speaker setup LITERALLY non-stop (without having to start up the bike) at every stop we took! I think one stop we were there at least an hour!...I told him that if his bike starts without a problem when we leave, I'm buying that battery! he started the bike, it fired up no problem! I've recently added this battery (Shuriken BTX30L) to my sled and experienced the same results! I'm currently running a 2 amp/6 speaker setup and bike fires up just fine after about an hour of playing my music. I'm wondering if anyone else has had amazing results with other type batteries? Just thought I'd share

Yuasa gyz32hl 500cca ,32ah. Once you start running multiple amps all that goes out the window.

I don't care what kind of battery your using, if your cranking your tunes with the bike off for extended amounts of time you are slowly but surely killing the battery. Maintaining your battery properly is the key to its longevity but even that will only get you so much if your using your sled audio for a jukebox.

Ain't that the truth! I'm currently running the Yusa as well. But as Slye said. Multiple amps and speakers will bring the best of em down! Especially if you're running mega bass!!

Brother I'm not saying it's a bad thing, just that no battery will hold up to that over time. I think we all are guilty of that.
