MMG Lithium Ion Battery

[JF Coastal_imp]

Looking for a replacement battery. Hoping to shed a few pounds and have a hassle free lithium battery. This one still in good standing ? Or can Anyone suggest another ?

Thought about opening another thread. But I'll start here.

Thanks in advance.

As of about a week ago it was holding up fine after 2 years—see [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=5457&pid=169332#pid169332]here.

Cool. Thanks Cormanus. I think i'm going to try it out. Is the link below the exact model ? Would hate to order the wrong one.

Yep, JF. That's the exact one I bought for my CB.

Awesome. Thanks. I'm ordering it now, actually. I just read your review on amazon as well. Appreciate the helpful reviews. Thanks.

I installed one of these too, it was a bit tougher than I expected. Does anyone else have a problem with the bracket for the screw for the hole in the underseat storage coming lose? For me it comes out almost every time and I am considering not worrying about even attaching this piece in the future.

I know this post is a year old, but I have the same exact problem. That bracket comes loose for me every time I take that screw out.

Yup, I had that issue. Although, I don't think it's a very big issue. just hold it from the underside. Maybe glue it in place ??

I installed the battery last week. Took just a few minutes and bike started up like a champ. It's crazy how light this battery is. Feels fake when you hold it in your hand.

Time will tell on the quality, but I'm optimistic !!

Its called a "nut, special 6mm". You can see it from underneath the rear fender from the right side. If it won't stay in place, you could use a dab of silicone or something to hold it, but let it move a tad.

Leaving it out isn't going to hurt anything either. Its not like the tool box (Honda name-Battery Cover) can go anywhere.

Yes, that screw. I don't even have the push pin in my box. The bracket holding that screw in is what falls out.
