I too live where it gets cold and I'd like to trickle charge it during the non-riding months. I just want to make sure I get everything I need instead of coming back over and over to do this upgrade.

    Yes most people store their bike inside, below freezing temps are bad on every type of battery but when using agm or lithium they put out much lower cranking Amps on initial power up when below freezing, we recommend turning ignition on and waiting at least 30 seconds before cranking to let the battery warm and produce more cranking amps when below freezing

Its winter in NY and my bike is in the garage (garage never gets at or below freezing) hooked up to the Noco Genius 10 charger/maintainer to the bikes battery pigtail connector. I pass the bike everyday and peek at the charger and its been at solid green stating fully charged. I haven't started the bike in about 2 weeks and decided to start it and the battery is dead. I jumped started the bike and it started no problem. Whats wrong with these maintainers, batteries, etc....?

    I just got a new Road Glide Special and don't really foresee needing to jump to LiPo, at least until my stock AGM starts to fail (or if I start adding on any significant power-draw periphials). At that time, I probably will upgrade to a LiPo. I'm just exploring battery options at the moment. I'm an RC model airplane guy and fly electric RC airplanes with LiPo batteries. My LiPo chargers can charge batteries with 1 to 6 cells in series, with each cell being 3.7vdc nominal and 4.2vdc max. Could I use my model airplane battery LiPo charger (which can do LiFe as well, plus I can change the max voltage, too, and can set the max max current input) to charge one of your Lithium batteries? Another question: What if you're out and the battery won't crank the bike? Can a LiPo-battery motorcycle be jumped with a system for jumping 12V lead acid batteries, like a lead acid or AGM system can? Excellent video. Thanks!

The amp will go into safe mode . When I actually start the bike. It's at 14v. When I crank it over. It actually goes down to 12 volts. Has a hard time starting. Then it immediately shoots up to 14v

    Why is it even necessary to even upgrade a battery when my factory conventional or AGM YUASA lasts me 7.5 to 9 full years of service for less than half the price of a Lithium.

    The average age of a Harley battery at replacement is 3 years, and the stock battery has about 300 cca when tested. Many have upgraded their engine and the battery is not sufficient to crank the engine quickly or they have an upgraded audio system and want to play more than 2-3 songs before the engine will not crank. We have batteries with more than 10 times the reserve power and more than 5 times the cranking amps. Plus the titan8 batteries can last well over 20 years

    I am not one of the loud annoying radio blasters that want everyone to hear the crap they are playing. I have a 2021 HD Tri Glide and still have the OEM battery. I know that the computer in the bike is smarter than most of us think. It even knows when you change the spark plug wires and most times if not the right one will make the engine run rough. I know the Lithium battery does not weigh near as much as the led battery. But, I will keep my HD all HD from the begging use the OEM battery. If my dealer quarantees the Lithium battery will not harm my trike ,I man give it a try.

    The stock battery is very weak with far too few cranking amps, these batteries really help your starter turn the motor over with ease once you get a stronger, high cranking amp battery.

    I love lithium batteries when you purchase a quality battery like the XS power titan8, they will need to warm up when in low temps, you can turn the ignition switch on and wait 30 seconds, this will wake the battery and allow it to start your bike. No battery of any type likes freezing temps

    It’s hard to put hundreds of thousands of people in the same box, some do ride just to hear the wind and engine and many many others love a great sound system playing their favorite music that transports them back to a past time in life! Music for many people is a release like listening to the engine! Getting away from the normal busy hectic life and doing what they enjoy!

    I was disappointed in this video. I understand that you're an audio company, but most of the video was talking about what batteries work with your audio system. This would be fine if the title of this video was what batteries work with our audio system, but the title had me believing the video is a review of the best battery for your Harley-Davidson motorcycle. In addition, contrary to what was said in your video, your prices are the same as H-D's for an Agm battery, and twice the cost compared to H-D's for a lithium battery

    We have many lithium options, the titan8 lithium battery is much more than the Harley branded lithium battery but the one from Harley is very weak with less reserve power and equivalent cranking amps to the stock battery. The titan8 series is a substantial upgrade over stock with 2-4 times the cranking amps and 4-8 times the reserve capacity depending on model chosen. Plus the expected life of a titan8 battery is over 6 times longer than the batteries sold by HD

    @volunteeraudio I agree that your battery is better, and a higher price is warranted. However, the battery shown in the video was described as less expensive compared to Harley-Davidson's, which isn't the case. That is why I made the comment.

    So some constructive feedback: i found ur video which should explain difference between lithium and agm battery for a harley. Instead, i pretty much skipped most of the video, because u continuously talk about audio systems on bikes. None, 0, of my friends have audio on their motorcycles (though thats my circle). So ur loosing about 50% of audience (including those sport bike crowds) because ur talking about audio.
