    While I have been on my bolts/anchors molded into Husky gas tanks that corrode rant, I noticed our Earth-X batteries have the same molded connector.....shot some dielectric grease into the threaded hole and replaced the leads. Can't Hurt? I'd hate to ruin a battery by having the connectors corrode tight.

    The Earth-X are 4 years old now in the Huskies - still spin the 310 and 511 like new. I do charge them over the winter on a Battery Tender Lithium trickle charger every month or so.

    I will replace the original lead/acid batteries in our KTM 690's when they die with Earth-X. I'm satisfied with the Earth-X - Thank you Tinken for turning me on to them - wherever you are......

    The battery is dead on my Harley. I'm kind of thinking of springing for the Earth X. At $340 it's a steep price, but Harley wants $170 for one, and the Yuasa that barely lasted a year that's in it now (on a battery tender when not ridden) was $125. So it's starting to look pretty good.
