Re:Any Body using this Battery? 3 Years, 2 Months ago  
I have had it with all these special batteries from the cycle shop, this is going to be my next Battery. I have bought two of them and they were both bad out of the box, I am running with the original battery that came with the bike I think and its a 2000, so it is way past time for me to have a new one!

Well good luck with it. The one I got has a 2 year warranty so don't think I will have a problem it sure is a lot better than the OEM one.

Well cold weather test is complete in got down in the low 30's last night. I went ou turned the gas on two clicks on the choke pump clicked and hit the button. It fired on the first turn over and didn't try to die idled just fine. To top it off I had all the nlights on when I cranked it. It hasn't started that good in ages so I would say the 320 is a great way to go guys. I'M SOLD!

Well, I'm trying to hit two threads at one time, Hopefully RoadieSL will see this and I also want to thank Curt... I bought this battery on ebay after Curt said he had good luck with it. I was looking to replace my old battery she was turning over slowly so I check out the threads on here and low and behold, I found out the info I was looking for. So I put in the MotoBatt and what a big difference with cranking power... I checked out a few battery centers around here and the cold cranking amps didn't come close to 320 and they were over $100. so Curt thanks again and RoadSL check out ebay if your still in the market, total cost $94.95 and there web site is www.motobatteries.com Good luck !

Hey JB glad ya found it and you got one. I am real pleased with mine I went on a Medial of Honor ride this weekend and it sure is nice to just touch the button and she cranked and running. I think it even runs better at crusing speeds. The HD guys don't have anythig to tease me about.
