Motobatt ....

Postby slparry » Sat May 11, 2013 3:46 pm

Just popped a Motobatt AGM battery on my Funduro, it spins over much faster now. From the reviews I've seen they compare favourably with Odyssey and are half the price (mine was £49 delivered)

One such test had a bike battery starting a 6.5 litre v8 multiple times!!

I have been using them for a few years now and find them brilliant.

Cool - will check those out Steve. :)

I take it they just do drop-in (ie same size etc) versions of a bike's original battery?
