Interesting, never thought about it. I guess they make these for Harleys?

I may be wrong but I think you have to buy a different battery tender for a lithium battery.

Guys I just ordered a 120.00 dollar battery from THROTTLEX BATTERIES .
This thing has a 400 CCA. I'll let you know if it works and how it looks when I get it, fast delivery also 2 days out of Chicago

 

[roadrunner1414]

Any that doesn’t leave you on the side of the road, basically the cheapest one I can find at replacement time and I generally get 4-5 years life out of them. Brand doesn’t matter to me, with that lifespan I can live with it.

Best balance of price and performance.
I have a 1 year old battery now and its already iffy.
I have an 07 Dyna currently using a 18ah / 310 CCA. with a high performance high compression engine.
I always use a battery tender.
I need a high powered battery that fits, and lasts, thoughts??

For me it's got to be an Interstate battery. I was admiring your bike love all the chrome on rear èspecially the swingarm. What kind of shocks are those

 

[dyna962007]

Thanks for the nice words. I won many shows with that bike. Those shocks are new inexpensive Progressive 412's.
I had a previous pair of 412's on it that were 12 years old and finally developed a tiny leak so I just replaced them.
I noticed with the new shocks, the actual shock itself inside the Coiled spring is now also chromed whereas the earlier model was black. A nice touch.

I always replace my 2012 ElectraGlide battery with OEM battery at the Harley dealer. I do it every 4 yrs. so i don't get stranded somewhere. Lookin at $175 but it's got the original good quality hardware hookups and all that. Could have saved about $40 by going away from OEM but I hate the hardware hookups on a lot of offbrand batteries.

 

[dyna962007]

good thoughts and comments guys,

Pretty sure that is a size "20" battery.

Yep. 20HL.

And he isn't gonna find one with 600 CCA!

That's a truck size battery!

 

[Mr Mustard]

My Sporty's battery lasted 12 years, then I put a Scorpion AGM in it. That was 5 years ago, and its still in there. Also use a tender everyday.

I'm not sure why anyone would want a 600 CCA battery unless they use their bike to jump start bull dozers!

I have used my 320 CCA to jump start my pickup once. I promptly purchased a jump pack after that.

I have no means of using a battery tender as I store my 20913 Fat Bob in a trailer that's about 500 feet from any electrical outlet. My HOA (They all suck) won;'t of course let me string an extension cord. My on ly option that I know of is to pull out b battery, bring inside and use tender in my house. ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS, please??

 

[DaveyFB]

Maybe a deep cycle Marine battery, or 12v car battery w/ converter to 120v & plug the trickle charger into that in the trailer
Should not take much juice, bring big battery in to charge it back up, then put it back in the trailer
In the Winter on my old bikes I used to take the seat off & battery out & keep them in the house until Spring

Home depot rents trenchers (ditch diggers), run a cord 3' under the ground (inside conduit) to the trailer, put a weather proof plug box under the trailer, drill a hole in the floor for the cord and call it done. It should take less than 8 hours to do. Place sod over the ditch you backfilled and tamped the dirt on so there is no obvious signs of what you did.
That is the cheap way.

The other option is a solar setup in the roof of the trailer.

 

[DaveyFB]

HOA will never allow that, they would require an electrical permit which will never be approved

simple fix.Install a small solar panel on top of the trailer that powers a trickle charge system
