I saw a commercial the other day for a new lithium battery from battery tender.
Anyone use one of those?

You mean in motorcycle application or just in general?

Sorry. For my GZ250.

Most of the people who ride these things are in it for the cost, so lithium batteries don't crop up too often in discussion. There have been a couple of upgraded battery threads over the years, but nothing to in depth.

That being said, they're kind of amazing. But unless you're going to be switching the bike's drive system over to electric or something, the price and performance don't really outweigh the traditional for an application like the GZ. If you find one for near the same price, then by all means, invest. They last longer, discharge less, provide a more steady flow and look cool under the seat :)

Well said.
I've found a couple on amazon for a comparable price.
Think I'll get one.
Lot's of good feedback. Even the guy at the auto store says he's had no complaints.

Hmmm. First time for everything...
