There are some new SMALL batterys out = less weight, but same power? Can't remember what they are made of but they are about half the size of my stocker.
Anybody change over to one of them on a tuber?

Got a shorai myself...about a third the size of stocker, (1/5 the weight) and same (equivalent) amp/hr rating...been using it for a few months in my m2, no problems at all. Have had one in my other bike for over a year and its good too.

There is a guy on here that had a Shorai on his XB and it exploded on him during a trip through Mexico. If you want a light weight battery, get the one from Erik Buell Racing, that one was designed with a motorcycle charging system in mind.
