If it wasn't a Smart charger, yes, 3 amp would be questionable.
Yep, exactly right. And, the bigger 750 batteries are more tolerant, as well.

Hey guys, hope you're all doing well. I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately, life keeps getting in the way

Hey Mo...welcome back. Good to hear you still have your bikes.  I also like the Yuasa, but the 12V900 is not available.  Here is a good replacement...

PS.  Would be nice if you made the SS oil lines again!

Thanks Stev-o! Damn I miss hanging around here :D ask and ye shall have when it comes to help.

I'd love to make more lines, but unfortunately the guys who had the proper machines to do the crimp have closed shop due to covid :( I need to find another place that has the right machine, and more importantly is willing to take on small orders. If I do get to it, rest assured here is the only place they will be available...
