As you may recall, I had battery issues again, with my FTR1200, so I decided to switch tomorrow, to a lithium ion battery. The battery I opted for per ferraiolo1's suggestion, was an Antigravity HD12.
I have the battery in hand, the time to finally install it, and since the weather will be warm enough tomorrow for a morning work commute (I won't freeze doing 75-80 mph [120-130 kph] on the freeway), have decided to install the battery after I get home from work today. Since the Antigravity battery is a bit smaller than the OEM sealed lead-acid battery, am I going to need to put a foam pad in the battery tray, under the battery (made out of high temperature foam, since the tray is located right in front of the engine) to keep it from bouncing around from road vibration?
