Well, for one thing, the seller doesn't know "except" from "accept".

I thought the /5's had the same size battery as the R65, so, I don't get it.

Apparently they painted it "indestructible" and that's good enough for eBay advertisement!


Besides, there is not enough room between the fender and the airbox for a larger battery!
And I don't see where that holder has been changed, in it's physical dimensions.

Thats is exactly what I was thinking. I dont get it and I wouldnt buy it any way. Who needs to?

I don't know what he means by "small 18 20 amp battery from /5 and oil heads"

There are a few batteries which would be useful alternatives except for the fact that they are 87 or 89 mm deep. Ours are 82mm. If he has found  5 - 7mm somewhere I'd like to know how he did it.

Not only that, but the darn thing is "i-n-d-e-s-t-r-u-T-a-b-l-e", whatever that means!
