As of today I would say yes they are shit. Oldfatbeermans has died on us in the middle of Myall river forest and we are piggy backing with one battery between us until we get onto decent roads for towing. Should have head breakfast and really want some lunch now. This could take a while

No good at all mate !! We all should have head for breakfast too

That’s looks the biz mate and sounds like a top bit of gear

Do they make other gear ??

For the money, are the Lithium batteries worth it? I mean really, I have used lead-acid or gel-mat batteries in bikes and ride-on mowers for years. I own a trickle charger but only use it when the batteries reach the end of their service lives. Even the DR-Z 250 just sits for weeks at a go then starts when I hit the button. I might have to upgrade batteries once in 3 years. Batteries cost about $60.

I guess the weight saving thing doesn’t matter to me, because I’d be better laying off the pies and losing a few kilos myself before picking things on the bike, like the battery, to be weight problems! Or, I could stop carrying a spare tube and assorted nuts and bolts in my camelback, or not carry a camera, or phone, but you get the idea.

Just asking, because it seems a bit gimmicky for an average trail rider to me!

Great comment there Ecks and I agree with you 100% , I orginally bought mine as an improvement rather than a weight saver , a battery that was maintenance free and had a long shelf life , weighed bugger all and cranked hard seemed like the best thing !!! Not so sure now , just about to go for a warranty claim and battery no.2 :pinch:
