Odyssey Battery arrived today

[JohnnyBoxer]

Motorworks supplied a Odyssey PC 680 for £99 delivered from Motorworks including the terminal adapters

Gonna fit it to the R11RT this afternoon

Good battery, I've had one fitted for over 6 years now, (R1100GS), never use an Optimate or similar charger and it will start the bike easily after standing 6 weeks plus.

I'd have though a man with looming redundancy would have saved himself £20 and bought it from Nippy Normans

Nippy's advertised price is 99 GBP plus 8.95 GBP postage

I'm not that daft, Tim

See posts 4&5

NN replied twice by email, but weren't much help - their attitude was take it of leave it

Plus Motorworks supplied the brass L Brackets to fit it better, FOC

Customer service was excellent and even the boss phoned me twice to update me on the progress of the L Brackets fabrication by a supplier local to them

Absolute top service from Motorworks

Its because you are upside down, all of the electrons will fall out
You could try placing a magnet under the new one to hold them in.
