Now there is a much lighter alternative, the lithium-iron-phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries from Antigravity Batteries. While a traditional YTZ10 lead/acid battery for a YZF-R1 or YZF-R6 weighs about 8lbs, Antigravity’s equivalent lithium-iron battery weighs about 2 lbs, about 75% lighter and an easy savings of nearly 6 lbs! Fits all R6 models.
Additional Features:
SIZE: Direct replacements for the OE battery with the same case dimensions and connectors, providing a perfect fit and 70-80% weight savings
BETTER STARTING: Larger ignition spark and higher voltage on the starting pulse than a lead/acid battery
NO MAINTENANCE: No liquids to spill and no trickle charging necessary to keep the battery charged
DURABLE: Will not be damaged by vibration or heat like a lead/acid battery while also being completely waterproof
NON-TOXIC: Chemical make-up does not contain highly toxic materials such as acid or lead
