So, I know I saw something about what I'm asking now but I can't find it. So as you probably know I have an XB tail on my 1125CR. I need the battery with same power but smaller. I can't find what is the power of original batter... Ah, CRANK? I'm watching SHORAI LFX14L2-BS12. Or I need to take one with more power.... LFX18L1-BS12, or this isn't enough either? I run dual xenon, heated grips and auxiliary leds 30W | ||

This is what Yuasa recommends - http://www.yuasabatteries.com/battery.php?bID=B200 &vID=3569 It lists the CCA as 200 amps etc ... | ||

What about Ah (AmperHours)? I definitely need that information | ||

try google and let us know what you find. Scorpion and Power-Sonic the last time I googled around. | ||

I've been searching over google for awhile now but still no luck, that's why I'm asking here now. I don't know who else could I ask now... Any recomendation? (Message edited by BEliEVER on February 19, 2013) | ||

On the buellersdownunder forum is someone using this battery in his 1125cr with xbs tail. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BALLISTIC-EVO2-8-CELL-LITHIUM-BATTERY-ARCTIC-CAT-366-ATV-All-Years-/271088422081  | ||

OEM battery is a 12 AH | ||

Only two questions... For all are known the 1125 electric charging system problems, so it's wise to install a LifePo battery? I know that lithium is very sensible to charge down/over voltage, so this batteries will last? or will die in less than a year? | ||

Brother_in_buells... can you post the link to this photos or threat?? | ||

The way that Lithium batteries seem to be burning up everywhere you turn these days, I'm not sure I'd want one of them on my bike right now. I could be wrong, but I think the advantages of a few less pounds don't outweigh the extra costs of a torched bike. | ||

> I could be wrong, but I think the advantages of a few less pounds don't > outweigh the extra costs of a torched bike. For racing, it's nice upside. That's a lot of weight saved high up in the tail for not much money. I have to replace mine every couple of years, but I still think it's worth it. I use a stocker battery that's original from my 2008 machine (!) on my teaching bike. | ||

Thank you for the informations, So the Shorai LFX14L1 would be just fine, right? Or should I go with Shorai LFX18L1? Do I also need charger or the battery will last at least 2 or 3 years? | ||
| Believer |
I just wanted to order LFX14L1 but even the salesman said I should take LFX18L1, why. Isn't the 14 strong enough? It's even stronger then original one? | ||

The LFX18L1-BS12 is what is recommended on the Shorai website - http://www.shoraipower.com/c.3379047/BatteryFinder /battery-finder.ssp | ||

> The LFX18L1-BS12 is what is recommended on the Shorai website. That's odd, last month shorai was recommending the LFX21L6-BS12. I wonder why they changed their minds. | ||
| Believer |
Yes I saw what Shorai recommend but I don't understand why, since original battery is 200cca and 12Ah, and LFX14L1 is 210cca and 14Ah. Am I missing something? | ||

Call Shawn Higbee at Shorai and ask him we abused one for days last year at Daytona and never charged it Only charging was when the bike was running. |
