hebrew hammer Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 So I will be relocating the battery to the back hump really soon and since my battery has been neglected forever I was thinking of getting a new one. I read on some bobber forums that they just used a very small battery that is the size of your fist and it works? I currently have LED turn signals (will be adding LED tail light too) and changed the headlight to a 35/35w h4 bulb if that information helps any. I know a sealed battery will work but than I would have to make a fiberglass pan for it and have less space for the rest of the electronics since I am clearing the battery box and making the thing look clean.

Speedshop Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 If you only use the kick starter yes you can fit a much smaller battery. I wouldn't fit a battery less then 5 amp hours with the standard regulator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

little dave Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 I use soethig similar, on my DT. its a werker 5 amp battery at 6v. it holds out ok, but about every 6 months, the vibratons tend to get to it and render it useless. thank god they have a 1 year warranty.
