OK, just like the later models. You are lucky. Many, many of the Yuasa batteries leak. We've found several new bikes at our dealer with the problem.I was lucky too. My original Yuasa didn't leak but when it died, I opted for the Motobatt due to the leakages I had seen or heard about. Also, Yuasa advises not to lean them over whereas Motobatt says it's okay..
I have been running the AG 16 cell for three years now. Starts in the upper 20 degree F range with two hits at most. Never worry about it during warmer months. Bike is a 2012 NTX. Installed after two leaking lead acid units. When the temps get below 25F here in Nebraska its time to pull the battery for the winter. I leave it in the basement until spring and then reinstall for the new riding season. Bought the special charger and have never used it.
My MotoBatt MBTX16U, nearing 3 years old, seems to be showing signs of weakness so I am replacing it with another Motobatt. I don't wanna get caught this winter on a cold morning and need a jump-start.Bought off amazon for $85 free shipping.
It's cheap but 3 years is a very short life.My original in the Stelvio from 2009 is still going strong. In my Volvo car the original from 2002 is still in without signs of weakness. After 377000km.
The battery has not konked out but it doesn't seem to be as strong.I've gotten as long as 7 years (out of an Odyssey) and as short as 2 years from other batteries (in different bikes). I think the warranty is 2 years on the Motobatt.
Should have already said this - yes- load tested. Slightly weak.
