Default Lithium Ion battery

Guy at work told me about lithium ion batteries for motorcycles. Anyone have any experience on this, or ever used one? It would give a lot more room in the battery box for aux wiring if needed as opposed to shoving them all down under the seat.

Thanks for the links - think I'll wait on this idea.

Scotty you'll get a big raise if you can convert those lithium ion power cells in crystals that we can energize our drive units into hyper drive, NOW. Kirk out!

80% lighter and don't seem to drain as fast, seem promising, but very pricey

Some Vrod owners install them for more room with air box mods that they do. Very costly.
