Review: Exact Replacement for Vintage Bikes 1973 Honda CL350 - Old bikes typically come with flooded batteries with a vent tube. I was busy this Fall with work and keeping up friends, so I didn't charge my battery with trickle charger often enough. Consequently, one day, my lights didn't work and my bike didn't start. I gave the old battery a 12+ hours of trickle charge since it had a 12 Ah capacity, but only lights worked afterwards. The battery was rated for 165 CCA (Cold Cranking Amps), but it wasn't starting my bike, so it was basically useless. I looked at sealed AMG batteries (no vent tubes or need to replenish electrolytes periodically) direct replacements for my particular 1973 Honda because your standard Autozone or Advanced Auto Parts batteries will not fit inside the stock battery compartment. At the same time, I'm holding off on "cafe-ing" the bike out, so I didn't want to switch to Shorai LFX lithium ion battery yet (smaller, more expensive); I wanted to enjoy the stock form of the bike for another year. After replacing the battery, the bike started in 3 attempts (cold start, 40 deg F New England weather). The bottom spacer is nice, but not required for these older 1970 Honda CL/CB models. It fit perfectly in my CL with extra clearance. Just make sure you use a band or a strap to hold the battery in place if your using a stock frame. Install is easy; it already comes with the single Allen wrench and screws you need. Make sure you cover the other 2 terminals that you're not using with the round plastic covers it comes with.
Review: Great light weight powerful battery for my 1990 ZX-7 - I am restoring a 1990 Kawasaki ZX-7that had been sitting unused for 15 years, and the first thing I replaced was the 16 year old lead acid battery that had completely dried out and died. The Motobatt was an exact replacement and was lighter than the one replaced, and it has functioned perfectly!!! On my first attempts to get the bike started it provided the power to crank until the fuel was drawn through the lines filters, and pump to the carbs, and kept the cranking going until the bike fired!!!! I have 150 miles on the bike now and it starts up in one crank with the MotoBatt!!! I can recommend the MotoBatt for motorcycles, it is a direct replacement and has plenty of power to get your bike started!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How are any warranty issues handled? Seems Amazon refuses to allow return of the batteries, so how do you handle any issues?**
A: Our warranties are handled directly by us. We require testing with voltage readings to document the type of failure. MotoBatt requires the top plate of the battery for warranties and not the entire battery. We do charge a warranty fee of $15.95 to cover the shipping and handling of the new battery to you.

**Q: what are the amp hours and cold crank amps?**
A: The MB12U has 12 amp hours and 160 cold cranking amps.

**Q: Which side is the positive terminal on?**
A: They are on the front and back (two positives and two negatives) so you could connect the positive on the right or left side.

**Q: Will this work for an 850 Norton Commando?**
A: If you have a 850 Commando 1974-1977, you will need the MotoBatt MBTX14AU battery.
