Battery life

battery replacement.

i just replaced the battery in my 08 r3 classic. it got to the point to where it wasn't spinning the motor over fast at all, and after putting it on the battery tender, it still didn't have the juice to turn the motor over fast at all. it would seem to stall before the motor would light up. i went to batteries plus and got a good battery, agm type, and i have no more problems with the battery. it's sorta like tires, if we can't afford good tires or a good battery, then how in the world can we afford riding such a great bike? i can't even imagine trying to push start one of these beasts.

I think it would be better to call Scorpion and talk to someone.
Then maybe you can get a little better one. Just make sure that
not only the size and amps are sufficient, but also the terminal
locations.
