Charlie,

I wouldn't use a battery meant for a UPS application in a motorcycle. It
does not have the crank amps capacity that your everyday car battery has.
They are designed to give long discharge times only, not startup power. I
work with these batteries everyday of my boring life.

A while back we were discussing the Centennial battery. Did anyone ever
get the correct mdl/part no. to use in a Loop? Also been looking at the
Interstate YIX30L (sealed lead-acid) which seems to fit all my criteria.
With my brother's dealer discount it will probably cost about the same.
Checked with the dealer I got the Falcone battery from and they wouldn't
recommend the Panasonic LC-X1228P or any battery of that type originally
intended for use as back-up power in UPS systems so the search for the
"perfect" battery continues... Cheers,

Charlie
