So long little one, 8 years, it has been fun...

... to my ORIGINAL battery in my '02 :biggrin:

Pretty good run, 8+ years, 60,000+ miles. Surprisingly, if I charge it, it doesn't load test bad!

I must own one of the rare, charging & non-surging VTEC's. :biggrin:

Well no wonder there since it is a Super MF...those MF's can last.

I just replaced the original battery in my 03. It only had 16k on it, but still, 7 years isn't a bad run either.

You had me going. I thought we lost another Viffer.

You beat me to it. Super MF is right! :biggrin:

Now that's something :blink:

Have you considered framing it? It seems almost a shame to despose of it :biggrin:

Yeah, should' a framed it! Don't worry, the corrosion, acid or lead won't hurt anything :biggrin:

The X-11 is the best Helmet I have used for the money. You can still can them on closeout for about 250- 300. Here is the deal breaker....It breaths....You can actually feel air move over your head. I cool head makes me happy. Plus I can not see my graphics from inside my helmet. That and mine is black.
X-11 Shoei is really hard to beat.



Agree 110% on the x11. My son has an Arai which is also nice, but the Shoei has almost no buffeting at high speeds, great in the wind and cooooll in the summer. Did I mention cool in the summer :laughing6-hehe:

Just replaced my first from an 05. Sounds like it was a bad deal for me.....

W00t!!!! I got 10 years on my OEM in the '00. It wasn't dead yet, but it was more of a preventative swap.

Here's hoping you get 8 out of your new one!
