Thanks Ed and others for comments, and bbq'd sausage metaphors!
The LFP9Q-B SSB/Skyrich arrived today, and sadly it seems I did pick the wrong one.. although it is 180 CCA it is designed to replace 9AH batteries rather than the 12AH 160 CCA I had in the bike. It states maximum charge current to be 15A, while the f650 alternator apparently delivers 400w (about 30A at 13V which I guess might be 20A after headlights?). Do you think my alternator will melt this one on long open road trips?
I think the SSB I should have got was the LFP12Q-B which has 20A maximum charge... http://www.ssbpowersport.com.au/Prod...1/Default.aspx
I will try it out tomorrow. Do you think this wise? I know you're selling a better fit battery for my bike, but do you honestly think I am at risk of a meltdown?
Cheers!
