    Battery Question

    My 07 Vmax calls for a minimum 550 Ca and 380 cold Ca. Can I go with a higher CA. THe battery in it now is the minimum Ca. I was thinking of going to 800 is that a good move or should I stay with the min. Thanks

    You can't hurt any thing going larger on cranking amps. Your reserve capacity is important you can fish longer if your are on fish and not drain starting battery with depth finder and other electronics. Hope this help's.

    Most guys buy the largest cranking battery that'll fit in the compartment.Battery amps are like paper work,you can never have too much to cover your a$$.
