Hi all,
Apologies for this slightly odd post, but I need to buy a battery....specifically a [B]Hawker Energy Genesis EP Series, G 12V 12Ah 10EP Sealed[B] I really want to get one for less than a hundred quid, which is what Ive been told so far...Im hoping someone out there (maybe one of the 'garag/tuners' lot might be able to help... thanks v much Night |
Sounds a bit like a domestic intruder alarm "Gel-type" battery - about 15 quid from B&Q.
Probably not though! Jeremy |
Try International Lamps. They have started doing a range of sealed lead acid batteries in the region i.e. 12 Ah you describe.These batteries are used mainly for UPS applications and battery back ups in fire alarms etc. Unfortunately I only have their Fax number with me. Tell them the physical dimensions and they should be able to supply an equivalent.(I hope) I just got two 7Ah batteries off them for £25.00 all in for a computer UPS.
Fax them on: 01279442222 Hope this helps Greg |
cheers Greg - its actually for a Buell S1 Lightning - but it needs a very specific battery for some reason....International were very helpful!
cheers Night |
Hi Hightmare
Try - |
Yeh Rs do them too, but charge more. These are just motorbike batteries though, so should do fine. As I say it is the dimensions that are critical,(after the Ah rating) because it always has to fit IN something.
Im off to the chat thingy seeya Greg |
A Diablo and a Buell - that'll be TWO tractors then!
|
B**stard!!!! hahahahahahha http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif Its a bit of a competition as to which is the loudest!
|
Competition? Ferrucio's finest must be INCREDIBLY loud to beat a Buell. Especially one without any of that wussy standard filter/pipes rubbish.
Incidentally, what do Buell owners do with the standard parts? I've only ever seen them with aftermarket parts .... and new frames, but then that's another story! |
They must get a refund on them when Buell recall every bike they've ever sold (like they did recently).
Still, Nice one Nightmare, it's the first step towards a 'proper' bike. http://www.bullhonkie.com/images/emoticons/40.gif Mike. http://www.bullhonkie.com/images/emoticons/24.gif [This message has been edited by Mike Tuckwood (edited 14-01-2000).] |
Proper?? Pah - I've got a hypercharger http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif Neither has the standard pipes / baffles / filters / mufflers etc etc etc !!!
Mind you - the bloody thing is about as flaky in build quality as a TVR. Pathetic American junk...... Thinking of geting an R6 - any opinions? |
A Buell to an R6 - interesting swap. Biased opinion, I know, but I'm a bit bored with in-line 4-cylinder bikes. The R6 is awesome, but completely frantic. Stunning handling, though it's a bit too easy. Very very fast, but you really need to be in the mood - it's more like a two-stroke, to be totally honest. Weighs sod all, and really feels like it too - I thought it was twitchy, but that's not a universally held view.
I'd rather get a GSX-R750 (to be a trackday loon), the new Firestorm to be different, or even a secondhand Blade. Even with an Ohlins shock, reworked forks, Dynojet and a decent pipe, it'll still cost you less than an R6. And it'll have torque. |
