Battery life - DTX360

[Neil955i]

The battery on my DTX360 is fast approaching 4 years of service and starting is becoming more, er, exciting on cold mornings.

The plan is to get a new Yuasa and fit it together with a set of Optimate pigtails as the battery is located behind the fairing under the front screen. Reasoning? I'm finding now it's sometimes over 2 weeks between rides and I think I'd feel happier knowing it had been hooked up to the battery tender in the meantime.

Prices for the battery here in the UK around £65.

Neil, did you think about replacing your Bb battery with a LiFePo4 one?
I changed in both, XC300i and BMW R1100RS  to this accus (other scoots as a XC 500i too).
No probs at all since 9/2023. Has the advantage to keep voltage around 13V DC and even over longer periods of no charge, nearly no discharge.
Price approximately the same, less weight but only half of amph, so you need a 14Ah as a substitute for a 7Ah which is usually mounted in our scoots.
