New King Battery....some better options

[firefighterjosh]

After reviewing some articles on nyrocatv.com there has been some good descusion about batterys. Thought I might share some good info since the stock KQ batterys are junk!

Odyssey PC535 or PC625 are great batterys!

Both are about the same size as the KQ battery. The PC535 is a little shorter and the PC 625 is a little taller then the stocker battery but that causes no problems with seat clearance. When using the PC625 spacers and longer bolts will need to be used in order to use the bracket that holds down the battery.

THe batterys are diffrent. The PC535 post are configured on the same side as the Stock KQ.

The PC625 post are on opposite sides. If you use the PC625 just turned the battery around so that the post are configed onthe same side. The ground will reach but the postive cable will need to be lenghtened about 3 inches. But the PC625 is cheaper, and has higher cranking amps.


I bought mine from summit racing for about $85 shipped to my door.

Did you order the 625 or the 535 and how is it working for you? My stock battery is useless, I had it on the charger 2 hours before we left to go riding on memorial day and i had to pull start it all day. I am definetely in need of a new battery!!

I also found another battery on the nyroc site that has more cranking power than the odysseys and is a perfect replacement. It is a Yuasa YTX20CH-BS, i think i might try this one instead, this one is about $85 too.

I have the 625. I love it. No problem other then the negative post is striped at the top. (might be my fault ) but it still works.


Nice find on the YTX20CH. If you order it let us know how it works!

OK, I give up. What is the address for the battary info? I tried the nyrocatv.com quite a few times and all I get is Invalid Hostname.

I think I am going to order that battery this week. We went riding yesterday and the battery was dead after our first stop, had to pull start it the rest of the day I even had it on the battery tender for a day before we left and it said it was fully charged.
