Funny how you guys complain about batteries. i just replaced my car battery for 150. I guess the whole point of this thread is how mc batteries are suppose to be cheaper than car batteries?

how long did your car battery last? my truck battery is 7 yrs old and her car battery is 4 the 1 before that in her car went 11 yrs before needing replacing. my concern is 1 yr and a couple of months seems a little off. especially when the last electra glide battery was over 7 yrs old. The night train I bought had a 7 month old yuasa battery that was toast. so I am going back to the thunder volt batteries and hope for better results. I don't mind spending the money on a good quality battery that will last 3-4 yrs or more. jmo

Look at post #12. Like Joe said, batteries in AZ typically only last 2 - 3 years. I got 3yrs on my last bike battery and 2.5yrs on my car battery.

Why make such big **** over a battery. Yuasa has always been top quality battery and you can get one for a good price. By the time you need a new battery,LI Fe will probably the way to go. I already went that way.
