Before you buy one take good notice of the + and - pole's positons at the current battery

I just put in a Duraboost Lithium and it is a 500CA battery. It seems to be spinning the motor over much quicker than the stock 310CA battery. I do keep it on a lithium Battery Tender charger if I don't ride it for several days or more. I looked into the Antigravity batteries because they advertise 600+CA. However, they get terrible reviews so I passed on that idea.

This one says it has 500 CCA.



Tried to post the link from Amazon ($140), but it would not work.
