Arrived adequately charged to start bike; fit in 2017 Suzuki SV650
Arrived charged and able to start my bike. My only slight complaint would be that the mounting nuts they send with this battery are sort of hard to work with, they're very thin and are not easy to keep in place as you are putting the battery in. The simple solution is to just keep the mounting nuts and bolts from your previous battery and use them on this one. That's what I did. But depending on the mounting location, you may not have a problem using the hardware they send. (Installation suggestion: if you're putting this under the seat of a motorcycle, where a lot of batteries go, the battery often isn't completely level and that's why the nuts keep sliding out. You can use a small piece of electrical tape rolled up so it is sticky on both sides, and stick the nuts under the battery terminals so they don't keep sliding out of position as you put the battery in. You can just leave the electrical tape there when you're done, there's no reason to try to get it out.) Regarding the size, this battery is physically a little smaller than my bike's OEM battery, but a smaller battery isn't generally going to be a problem, it's a bigger one that you have to worry about because it might not fit. Also take note of the orientation of the positive and negative terminals, which need to be the same as those on the battery you are replacing. If the size is right and those things check out, I would say this battery is a good value and worth considering. Read more
