Tell me what battery you went with and how long has the life been? Sounds like the big crank from batterymart is somewhat popular. Anyone else using another?
I had the Big Crank on my last bike and it was great. It is actually a Deka (spelling?) that is rebranded for battery-mart.com. It's an excellent AGM battery at a good price. It was still cranking strong and holding a charge after three years when I traded the bike.
Shorai battery is what I usually go with, had one in one of my other bikes for 2 years already and the bike sits alot but never drains and has good cranking power
I recently replaced my battery also. I searched the internet high and low and the best deal I could find on a Deka battery was here: http://www.techbatterysolutions.com
Shipping was UPS quick !
Everything I've read about the Big Crank is it is the exact same thing as the factory battery. I won't be able to say it might be for several more years. Just changed the factory to it last year about this time. I know it is sure heavy enough to be the same.
