[QUOTE="art miller, post: 1450783, member: 19411"] I am by no means an authority on batteries of any type but I can report I had a 2007 with original battery and sold the bike in January 2014. The original battery was still going strong. My current 2014 battery was replaced in May because the dealer said it was weak and since I was about to embark on a 3000 mile ride through Nevada, Arizona, N. Mexico, Colorado, and Utah I thought it wise to replace the battery. For the past 22 years I have kept my motorcycles on a Battery Tender Junior. Over that period I bought two batteries, the first was for a 1995 Yamaha Virago 1100 that had sat for three years. The second was the current FJR after about 8 years. [/QUOTE]
