Bloody good battery. I used to jump start cars with mine after it'd been out in sub zero temps.

Mine is a year old and seems good,, dont be tempted to leave them on trickle charger over the winter,,if you need to top them up once every month or two,,

I have had one on my FZS1000 for a couple of years and it is still fine.  Starts the bike first time.  Impressive considering its not even on a trickle charger as I have no power in my garage.

Its a good battery. Had mine about 3 years no problems. The price on Busters now is roughly what i payed for mine.

I haven't noticed any damage.
Bike will be painted over the winter as the tank is scratched.
