RE: Basic Maintenance: Lithium Battery

That rings a bell. The smart charger for his car is able to charge it to 85% and then hold it there. He charges it to 100% only if he's taking a long trip.

I remember, on the old forum, member Flynrider was an early adopter of a lithium battery and was very happy. Those posts may well have made it here.

I looked at one last time I bought a battery for the CB1100 and decided the extra cost was too much for any benefit, but I'll be interested to see how you go with it. I suspect peterbaron has a point: you won't need to charge it often as the alternator will do the job well enough and it won't hurt it to lose a bit of charge post ride.

Sometimes the road not travelled is best left that way. (Jane Goodall)
