I am in need of a new battery, and was wondering if the aftermarket lightweight versions for sale are any good. do they last as long? Best brand? Would you buy it again? Any way of 'dressing them up' in the engine bay? Your picks would be great!

 

The 10.8 lb Hawker gets my vote. I used it during the summer on my Talon and never had a problem with it, not to mention it was only $23 shipped!

 

thats a deal!

where'd you get the $23 shipped??

 

23 bucks???? you got to be kidding. thats 10X what i've seen for the Toda. please, more info. VERY, VERY interested...

 

forget toda/spoon/typeone, they're all overpriced.

i got mine from surplusev.com, same size/weight just no packaging.

 

S2kracka, can you link (or anyone!) where i can buy the Hawker lightweight battery? Can't find a vendor on the 'net anywhere... just pics...

Click on the 10.8 pound model # and order form there.

 

its not $28 dollar listed but hey still good.

 

price is about the same as oem, but major weight savings... just bought it. Thanks everyone!

 

oops... i purchased the hawker genesis and not the odyssey by mistake. Is this going to be a major problem? do i need to ship the damn thing back and get the odyssey? crap...crap...crap Don't make the same mistake as me... BTW, posts are sold seperately
