Hi I like to know if someone here in the forum has experience with AGM (absorbed glass mat) batteries!
The reason I ask is you can lie them down and even install them upside down and they totally seald so no batteryasset will run out!
I just do not know how good they are! And in case of my CBR the batteriesize is even smaller than a original batterie! The downside is they cost about 100bucks more then normal batteries! But if they are good I am prepared to pay more money for it!
klaus!

Get one. They crank harder and hold a charge better. They are worth the extra $

I've got one in my GPz turbo, holds a charge longer than a stock battery , and I haven't had any charging issues with it[compatability with alternator, blah , blah].
And you can mount it sideways, if you're into that kinda thing
