I can only pray that I'll reach my 80's let alone ride a 700 lb bike. Awesome. Something clever here.

Go AGM Dave. I put one in my 4 wheeler over 3 years ago. Still going strong. Cost is a little more, but well worth it. I don't even have the bike on a tender. It starts every time even after sitting for months. Was going through lead/acid every other year. You won't be disappointed. Clyde +1

Never had a Harley....gotta lot of friends and family that does or had but I still like bikes .....just haven't had one in a long while My first..... My second and rates up there with most enjoyed... another fun bike my dad and I owned together... This is one that my dad and I rebuilt the motor over the winter many moons ago....a 60 something Sears, made by Punch? I think? and for a short while I had a 60 something Kawasaki 175 that was stripped down for climbing and it had like a 150 -- 200 tooth sprocket on it ...
