Kept mine happy all winter!!

I still don't understand why people are stressing out about changing the battery for the winter. You literally unbolt the + and - terminal, then loosen the tie down, lift battery out. Damn some people are lazy
OK, i was thinking of underdriving the alt to slow down the charge if it was an issue, may still do it anyways to squeeze out that extra 1/2hp

Yes i am really lazy, but you are right i shouldn't let my laziness get the best of me. def on my list of mods to do.

Going to probably copy your battery setup exactly.
