YAMAHA TENERE 700 - POSITIVES & NEGATIVES OF A LITHIUM-ION BATTERY

[@TheRiderGuider]

What are the benefits of fitting a #lithiumionbattery to a #YamahaTenere700 ? Or to any #motorcycle ? Here I'm talking about fitting a #ANTIGRAVITYATZ10 to my #tenere ... is the weight saving worth the extra money? Is the performance of the #lithiumbattery good enough? Is a lithium battery compatible with the electrics on a #YamahaT7? Or will it cause problems and make the bike play up? I hope not! It's time to find out by watching the first of a FOUR PART series where I look at the #positivesandnegatives of fitting an #ANTIGRAVITYBATTERY (the #ATZ10 ) to my awesome #tenere700 I'll also look at the reasons why I bought the ANTIGRAVITY over other brands and we'll compare the weight with the standard #yuasa item, which might not be as important as you think!Watch through to the end to get a chance to get some #free #riderguider stickers. Yes you know you want some stickers!

Great video. Thanks. Subscribed! If we can’t find the anti-gravity battery in our country, is it still worth getting the regular lithium compared to the stock?

[@TheRiderGuider]

I would say so Erkut, where are you located?

I could only take you seriously from 9.56. Why? That's when the baseball cap went on the proper way! Then you turned it backwards towards the end Nooooooooo! Don't know how that battery can be so light. 40 odd years ago our local auto electrician, older gentleman with restored Norton and an MV Augusta, told me that the heavier the battery the better, ie, stronger it was and since then have always lived by that. Weight saving has to be down to much more modern materials surely. If you are in your new garage it's very clean, where are all the tools? All the best.

HAHA all out of shot G. Hope you're well. I still have to reply to your email! Hope you're well mate!

How’s the body recovering mate. One shoulder looks like it’s dropped a bit. You are looking fit though.

[@TheRiderGuider]

Now then Chewie, I am amazed you spotted my shoulder!!!! Yes ... rotator giving me grief! Old man injury maybe? Haha ;-)

[@hachewie]
