legvw 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 It time i bought a new battery for my car as i'm fed up with it loosing charge! (its well over 5 year old now)Has any 1 used a motorbike battery on there vr's? Do they work ok, charge ok, have you had any problems?The reason why i'd go for the bike battery is that they're far cheaper and lighter then a battery for a vr.So, what do you think, should i, or shouldn't i. That is the question my friends.... Link to post Share on other sites
b road blaster 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 i would doubt that one would last long on a vr most bike batterys don't have very much cranking power Link to post Share on other sites
