There are limitations to the size of a battery?

Should be. You can change where the battery is placed and the size/type.

Yeah its legal, Steve Jordan does a good range in light racing batteries.

Great weight saving but they arent cheap.

I don't think Steve is on here, that is his Missus.

the size of the batteries look great but the price is wrong, the battery box is length 220mm height 130mm width 90mm, i have found one that is smaller than those measurements its a 12volt battery but 4 amps, the battery is YTX5L-B, someone is running his hawk on it and says that it might run a sv650, any body got any ideas.
