Perfect Battery for 07 Suzuki M50
Installed without hassle on my 07 Suzuki Boulevard M50. It comes with a plastic base addition to make the battery taller which I didn't need. Of note, my bike is not listed as a compatible model by the manufacturer, but the VZ800 and VL800 are listed, and these bikes often have interchangeable parts, so I took a chance, and it fits great. I love that you can connect your cables directly to the terminals with conductive machine screws, rather than having to fumble with tiny square nuts like a lot of batteries. It does come with terminal attachments that you can then use a bolt and nut with, if you have to.The power of this battery is great. I was having some problems starting my bike in the cold this winter, but not any more; I can easily start my 800cc bike in freezing temperatures. I have had it for a couple months now with no problems.

Replacement for Vespa LX 150
Excellent buy and an awesome battery. My LX 150 was in mothballs for over three years, unridden and was only started once during that time -- with the assistance of a jumper cables. Obviously, the original battery was deader than dead, refusing to hold a charge. Despite the fact the Vespa had under 600 miles on it, the fact that it had not been starter in a long, long while almost guaranteed a stubborn fire-up of the idle engine. Once replaced I was hoping to avoid killing this new battery with repeated attempts to turn over the motor with the starter. Well, as expected, the motor was quite slow to respond. With a bit of sweet talking and a few dozen sputtering attempts, the motor fired back to life. Through it all this new battery held tough and never flagged. I've run it now for about month with no issues at all. It fires strong every time. It's been started a minimum of 60 times since the battery was installed. Quite pleased with the packaging, quality of the connectors, the replacement battery pan that is included and the cold crank power it consistently delivers.

Best battery ever!
I'm writing this review 7 years after I purchased this battery for my Honda Foreman A TV. It's still performs the same today as it did the day I installed it. How many batteries have you purchased for this application that last 7 years and are still going. I use my a tv year round in all weather conditions. Exception battery that in my opinion is superior than all others. If you want a reliable battery that lasts well beyond your expectations, look no further.Update: 1214/23: well, it’s now been 12 years and the battery is showing signs of wearing out. 12 years! Unbelievable! Just ordered another exact same one. Best battery I’ve ever purchased.

Great Value, Great Quality
I purchased this battery based on some reviews and technical ratings on the motorcycle riders discussion boards. I am glad I did. It works great and is a super good value. There are some comparative reviews out there that typically show it performing as good or better than most other options.Update: Getting ready to start my second season. No failures or glitches. It remains strong after a year and a half.This is a brand I would stick with if I needed another motorcycle battery.

Horrible! Battery arrived with 25% charge. Dead after two days. Updated info!
Battery arrived with 25% charge, I tested this with a MotoBatt MBVM Pocket Voltmeter purchased at the same time. I put it on my charger overnight, then installed in bike. Bike started fine day one and day two, Went out morning of day three battery does not have enough power to crank the bike. When cranking the battery is below 10.5v, not enough to turn a 1000cc V twin. Stator on bike is good, up-rated regulator plus all charging and starter wires have been replace with better and up-rated units. I'm unhappy with Amazon for shipping a battery that has obliviously been sitting on a shelf for god knows how long rather than an actual new battery.I was able to get Amazon to refund my purchase, no returns allowed because it is hazardous material. Yet they can ship it to you? I did contact MotoBatt, they told me that couldn't do anything because although they do sell on amazon they do not not authorize direct Amazon sales. But they did provide me with a discount code to use on their site. (it didn't work)

Started my bike, not so much now
Bike starts every time, and no vampires. So, it has to be good. Having dual posts means ease of hookup, and possible werewolf protection too.-So the old review had nothing much to review. Its a battery, and my second motobat. It installed, new (used) bike, started and ran fine. That was August 2, 2013, and come this past April 2014, Ive got to keep it on a charger at night to be able to start int eh morning. The volt meter on the bike shows low unless the bike is in charge mode (around 1100 rpm), the bike is running just fine, this battery is suspect.Hopefully, I can get a replacement.

Best battery for my motorcycles
I have now purchased two of these, one for each of my motorcycles. Concours 14 and my Yamaha sportbike. Great battery. Very slow discharge when the bike is not being ridden. My favorite part, is the connections. No only do you get an extra set that are reversed in case you need to wire it differently due to custom modes, or use in a different motorcycle--say you are going to San Antonio in an hour and one bike battery is dead, just swap them! OH GEE THE POSITIVE IS ON THE WRONG END AND THE CABLES WON'T REACH! is no longer an issue! But even better, the connections don't have that old 1935 battery technology, with a square nut that you have to blindly place under all your connections and then hold it in that little space under the battery connection, while you insert the bolt from above and try to hit the washer correctly without dropping the washer into the guts of the frame, lost forever. Where do you buy another square nut? Lots of fun back breaking tedious work I don't need. These connections are threaded, welcome to the 21st century. Your back will thank you!
