Gel cell batteries require DIFFERENT Charging voltages if I remember right they need to charge up in the 15.5 VDC range...Lead acid is the way to go for ANY VEHICLE as they are designed for the proper charging systems...
The regulated output voltage of the charging system for all Vics is 14 to 14.8 volts - well within the recommended required charging voltage for most Gel Cell and AGM batteries on the market today. Recommend you do some research regarding your comment. There are numerous battery manufacturers that are producing AGM, Gel Cell, and Dry Cell technology batteries for all types of vehicles, especially motorcycles. Standard lead acid technology dates back to the early 1900's. I agree we are riding "Cadillac Crotch Rockets", so why put a "Model A" battery in it?? |

Have one in my BMW R75/5 and used them on my E-glide before I sold it. Very happy with performance and longevity. Also like not having a drip tube spraying acid on things. |

Also like not having a drip tube spraying acid on things. +2 I'm liking the logic here. Nothing like getting down to work on the battery of your $25000 super touring bike only to find that acid seaping from the battery drip tube has corroded a bunch of important stuff including the battery box and dissolved a hole almost all the way through the front of the engine casing.  |

Cold Lake Alberta Canada | +1 on the Oddesy battery mad the decomp valve adjustment on my LC1500 Suzuki a thing of the past. And for those of us that have to bow out for the winter, the cold dosn't hurt them. Major cranking amps, awsome longevity and diddly squat for maintenance. |
