The battery is shot in my moto Guzzi. Went out when I parked it last November. It came from Walmart too and didn?t have but about 6 months in it. I probably could have taken it in and got another but no need to let it sit over the winter and get stale too. So I let it sit all winter.

I noticed that Walmart had a fresh load of batteries on a pallet. Brand new dated 2/18. That?s for me!

Had to go back to town this evening so I pulled the old battery for core and away I went. Got it, installed it and here goes. Hit the button and it fired right off. I could but a genuine Guzzi battery for 5 times as much and maybe get 3 years out of it. I?ve even thought of a NiCd Battery , but those are ridiculously high.

So here I am back with El Cheapo. Life is good...



Wow. You spend $9 less on motorcycle batteries than I do on the
batteries for my lawn & garden tractor. Of course, I wouldn't buy
toothpaste from Walmart.


Where do you buy toothpaste¿
