In the Bay area, you might see temperatures ranging from the 50's to the 80's(pretty broad range) for about 4 months out of the year, outside of that, it's mostly between 50's-60's for the greater part of the year. Coldest morning starts might occasionally be in the 40's in the winter.
I'll remember your advice on letting the Headlight wake it up prior to cold cranking
Good to read. I suspect the CB1100 would have an easier time "warming up" the battery using the pre-2017 quartz headlight bulb.
I think some other Forum members have been using lithium batteries for a few years now and haven't reported an issue. Likely a good sign.
Don't forget to use a charger that has a lithium battery charge mode and ensure it actually goes into that mode if it tries to auto-detect lithium vs. lead acid.
