One nice feature is that in cold weather the lithium iron phosphate batteries will self heat - so they gain in cranking amps as you hit the button multiple times.

I seriously doubt that these cost less than the yuasa at oem pricing - it looks like these are approximately $100 for the lithium-iron.

As far as weight loss - it is significant - the website says weighs 1/5 of original lead/acid battery (might be a stretch) - a quick way to drop a couple of pounds up high on the bike.

I checked them out at the Shorai website. Looks like a much slicker package with many more size/capacity choices than Turntech. Much cheaper than Turntech too for a larger capacity. I may have to try one of the 9 A/H for $109.00.
