Canadian Battery Source

Ordered these two batteries from battery clerk.ca

Very inexpensive and free delivery on orders over $129. These two came in less than 48hrs via UPS. The one for my cb750K was Cdn$57!

Are they any good? I have had bad luck with cheap batteries. Splurged and went with antigravity lithium battery. It's excellent and I just have one and switch around from bike to bike.

The last one of these lasted 6 years and at that price seems very good. They do die suddenly. I had the K1 out a few weeks ago, started and ran fine. Last Sunday, pushed the button and heard a faint “pop” and nothing. Checked fuses, all good. Battery was done!

I checked and their prices are they seem almost too good to be true. I could use a battery for the gl1000 as the cb750 antigravity lithium battery is a bit small for it. Six years out of a battery is very good.

The black one came from Kapscomoto.com. I bought a cb750 sized battery from them earlier this year, but this source is 20% cheaper and they look identical. My buddy Gary bought one from Kapsco a few years ago, for his GL1000 and it’s still going strong.

Saskbattery.com Free Canuck shipping over 85, and 1 year replacement warranty. I Get my batteries here since I found the warranty, & had nothing but good luck with these.
