thinking the stock battery can't handle the off road vibrations and with my luck i got a week battery originally.

i type this as i'm sitting in south lancaster at a fire site, listening montreal radio, picking up a wifi and banging away on my lap top.

cheers
and thanks for the input the wing nut lugs on the battery are great for accessories and heavier duty than i thought they would be.
montreal radio how do you know is it french ???

my blue top died after a week 1/2 at home sitting there just enough juice in her for the starter to go clack clack

so left her at the on possition rolled down the drive popped the clutch and vroom off I went at 0400 to work

Default Kodiak Dual Battery with Odyssey PC 925

Got the Kodiak Dual battery setup. Comes with two Odyssey PC 925s, an isolator and a switch. Everything works off the main battery. If that goes for any reason, a flip of the switch gets me started again. Works great and have only had a problem I created myself (shorted out the main battery with a wrench!)

Does anyone know where I can get the metal plate shown in this picture?



Looks like it would be a great place for relays, fuses, etc.
