We're going on a 3 day trip to Death Valley the 1st of April and I can't think of a worse place to have a battery go south. Mine has given me no hint of any problem, but???
I have access to a battery from a Bandit but they only have 140 cca, vs 210 for oem ST and one from a Goldwing but it's quite a bit bigger per the specs. I'm thinking of throwing one in as a spare, but will the GW one fit the ST compartment?

Thanks

Close... but don't think it will fit... it may be to tall for the straps?

Wing 6.8l x 3.4w x 6.1h

ST1300 5.9l x 3.4w x 4.3h

But it don't remember much of the battery compartment anymore... sorry... try it first... better safe than sorry.

I'd doubt a wing battery would fit but if the battery is giving you no trouble what's the worry?
What's the voltage go down to while cranking the bike?
