as a few here may know, I am slowly preping my V-strom, for an extreme arctic ride, as part of the prep, I have installed an auxiliary charging system that I am running independently from the bike's stock system. In making room for a second battery, I modified my exhaust from dual to 2 into 1, then chose an Optima DS46B24R yellow top, as my auxiliary battery
But, I'm finding it doesn't fit the way I would like, it's a little tall, and would require complicated recessing into my tail
SO, I am again looking at multiple smaller batteries, I would like to end up with more than 800 CCA. easily attainable with a couple gel snowmobile batteries, I am leary of lithium batteries in such cold. however would paring a gel battery with a lithium battery be advisable ?
