The "12" in the XYT 12 whatever battery you have. I had one like yours and its a bit to tall to fit in may JCL 250s battery box. It jacks my seat up a bit. The right batt. for my scoot always seems to have a 9 in the identification numbers / letters.

Oh, I have been using the 12 series (a little to tall to fit right) Chromebattery . Going back to a 9 series with this BM gel batt. Sylvre. Thought since the 12 series was for a 800 cc Suzuki Volusia it would be a better bet. But not really.

Sorry about the "Dealer" crack. Just started to feel like I had Leprosy. I couldn't believe no one had anything to say for three days on something as simple as "what is a good battery for a hot climate" that's all. The LA batteries ain't getting it for me anymore. I'm trying something else. I can get a BikeMaster Gel batt. for $64 or so to my door. with a 2 year send them a pic. of batt, and invoice and they will send me a new one guaranty. Beats spending $30-35 for an LA Batt on Ebay and once its about 14 months old it starts acting up. leaving me stuck in parking lots and such, Then the charging and jumping BS starts. No thanks, you can have all that. PS My problem is is the place I store my bikes here gets about 110 + F degrees all day in the building during sunny days from darn near April to Sept. AND my winters can get as low as 12 degrees for short periods of time (north central FL.). Thank you for all the replies Guys. Good to be back.

I'm starting to get the feeling that scooter dealers / and scooter parts dealers (batteries) are running this sight. They don't want to steer anybody away from the Chinese batteries they sell maybe ? Just a thought.

What is an affordable good replacement battery. for my JCL MP250A 257cc Linhai powered scoot ? And where should I get it ? Tired of replacing , jumping, charging to often after only a year or so old all the time. Had a batt. for an 800 cc Suzuki Valusia in it this time. Was only an inch or less to tall. And even it couldn't put up with the Florida summer heat. It just knocks the piss out of MC batteries. PS Charging system just fine.

Sorry, I do not want to give up my liberty for safety. Not a good trade IMNSHO. Those who give up their liberty for safety will end up with neither. And I would not sue anyone for my choices. That's a newer idea of how to conduct things I don't agree with.

And your idea is terrific Kat. Hey, It sounds like it works just the way it should, For whatever reason they give ground.  But like Dom, I'd look stupid in pink because I'm 6'3 or so  |

I butt heads with Doug more than anyone on this site  OK Doug, point taken. Just trying to put people on a proven tire. So much better than what I had. And no, I don't sell anything for scooters at this time. Do you Doug ? |

Homosexuals  I never called tires homosexuals. Something must have been misenturprited in my post. I just abreiviated pain in the rear for crying out loud. OR someone that monitors this forum sells those tires that don't last more than 2000 miles.  |

I put one of those flashing LED lights for a bicycle on the front of the JCL 250 and noticed cars started seeing me and noticing me more. And not pulling dangerously out in front of me. I bet  % of car drivers that have caused an accident pulling out in front of motorcycles say they never saw the motorcycle coming. They see me now so there goes that excuse. And the cars that are just disrespectful and just pull out in front of you because they are bigger than you,well, the flashing white light confuses them for a second and by time they realize your just a scoot and not a cycle cop then its to late to pull out because you are already right on top of them by then. I've passed some of those and they have the nerve to actually look mad at you because you fooled them or something. D8 |
