I have two stock batteries for this bike. I wont use either unless my current battery fails. I opted for a bikemaster tru-gel battery.
I am concerned running a li-ion battery on my dirtbike, only because I've seen the youtube videos of runaway li-ion battery's lighting on fire and being a blast furnace for a few seconds. MY *** is right near the battery LOL.

Theoreticly DHL should come to you to pick it up along with the forms. But your probably right. Not sure what the battery weighs gut 10#'s is around $20 I think Ill just get two new batteries of some sort.
