A kind menber has suggested a few different makes of batteries to use in my KZ750 Twin, i thought i had my mind made up on a Shorai but i thought id seek some advice 1st as i have more choices.
My bike is being built into a cafe racer so i really want as small as i can get as it will have to be concealed. My bike MUST run a battery to power the field coil so a Capacitor is out of the question.

So, does anyone have any knowledge or experience of any of these?

Suggestions on which 'model' in each range to go for are welcome too.

I know the guys over on ZRXOA.com really like the shoria batteries. The one they use is only 1.68 pounds and a lot of them use them on big bore high compression motors. The guy at www.expensivelightweightstuff.com sells them for 100-154 with free shipping in the US.

Yeah they seem good. I believe someone did mention a violent fire with one of them 1 time though. Seems all of those new batteries need a special charger too.

I have heard some good things about the ballistics, will probably go that route on my other bike soon
