I have a 2005 KTM 450. Just replaced the battery today for the 2nd time in 19 years. Simple lead acid battery .. a Yuasa YTX5L-BS. They last and are only about $55. As for weight, sure they are twice as heavy, but seriously, have a good piss before you get on your bike. There, that evens things up. LOL! Thanks for the tip!
@@uni-byte I'm with you I generally stick with lead acid, this bike just came with Lithium. I'm happy if I get 5 years from either one. 19 years with 2-3 is awesome.
