Its a good trick to use if you are travelling and cannot find a battery, even if you have lots of cash. My buddy came part way home one weekend with lantern batteries on his bike, till he got to someone who could fix his 6V generator..

 I never found it that amazing, till I joined this forum and people were saying that you need more battery to run the bike, than I have had, on more than one occasion.

 If you never had a multimeter, you dont know what you have, if it starts, you keep going.. God protects the ignorant, dontcha know..

...............................................................................

Dont take my word for it, PM 1080, he measured my battery in the last 2 weeks, it was under 7 volts, with indicators brightly lit, and it has been starting in 30 degree weather, when you can barely see the neutral light..

common sense would tell you that.  As an electrician, i can tell you....you don't fill AGM batteries.

I beg to differ.  I have one that is unfilled - I can snap pics as proof if you require.  You don't fill a gel battery, but the AGM I have you do.

No, actually, not how it came across to me... but that's ok.
I'm sure you meant it tongue in cheek.   ;)

Perhaps you should stick around for a while and get to know people here before trying to "school" anyone. ;)

   Jeebers Gordon you honest prick! It looks like you caused Motley to remove a couple of posts. You bastard you!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

   Sparty...your bike looks fast...when it starts....is it?  ;D ;) ;D ;) ;D ;) ::)

I'm curious about the seat.  Did you make it or buy it?  If you bought it, could you tell me what it is?  I'm trying to examine my options.

   Hey Motley...No worries, but how are we going to be able to judge your character when you go about and delete your posts. ;D ;D ;D ;D

  For what it's worth...when I ordered my last 2 AGM batteries I had the option of having them delivered to me either charged or not.

Common sense says....  you are incorrect.

You must fill it the first time - here is my battery ready for me to fill it.

Good stuff.  Long time no see, Art.  How are things in your neck of the woods?  The warm spell we had over spring break got me anxious to ride again so a dug the bike out and got to working.  Should have her fired up tonight with fresh coils and a dyna s ;)
