adding a battery system to a 200x

[fyi]

I'm not too concerned about battery longevity/durability because I've seen just how long some of these small ATV batteries last long-term, especially on ATV's that have been rode hard. My wife's 1999 Honda Foreman 450s 4x4 has been rode very hard from the previous owner, making the machine a real work-in-progress to fix up.

About the only item not requiring attention on that thing is the battery.... Cranks the engine over very easily every time and all the cells are still full. Therefore, that's a testiment of durability proof enough for me and if it can live through the torture the Foreman went through for nearly 7 years now, it can surely work well for my machine at a mere fraction of that kind of use.

I'll figure it out somehow when I get time and post back when I do brendan.

Agreed, but the 450 etc are sport / utility models. I wouldnt place much hope in a battery surviving in a 250R like mine that does (did) 5 foot down straight drops and double jumps with handlebars slammed into the sides of whoops. Big difference in abuse. Im guessing that is a dividing line between "battery or not battery?"

Sure, battery would easily hold up to tuning and drag racing, thats done every day.
