Speaking of batteries, is it safe to put a nylon cover on my bike while
using a power tender type charger?
I think that corrosive gasses might get trapped under there and I don't want
to uncover it come spring and see a corroded mess.
Anyone know what'll happen?
Thanks.

The battery is a tough one to find in an absorbed glass mat type. Tou will find some smaller ones that come close. If you wind up with one of the garden tractor batteries ,do yourself a favor and find one with a remote vent connection. Miers stores in Michigan have a good one for $29. The remote vent will avoid a lot of corrosion problems like the seat pan and stained mufflers. Just carefully route the vent away from these areas and secure the tube so it cannot spatter acid on the metal parts. lio-@aol.com wrote:
