Anyone have any experience with this company?  Looks like their MX30L is rated at 600cca.

My touring partner has an X-Rated battery, but his is just the "modest" 400 cca version.  He has had it in the bike for less than a year and likes it fine.

I for one will be very interested in what you have to report. I have a SE 110 engine. The OEM battery has trouble spinning it over when it is cold. Also can't be doing the starter any good.

I installed an MX30L in my SE 110 RK about six months ago. I also rebuilt the starter solenoid, and the starter spins very well. No complaints.

Just got back to the bike and installed the new battery.First impressions are WOW.This thing really spins the engine over.I'm at 11.4/1 compression and it spun right up on a hot start without the compression releases.It has certainly not done that before.The weather is supposed to let up tomorrow so hopefully I'll have a chance to get out for a ride and get some real world testing.            Coff 06



Mine is the one with the large lead threaded connectors.....no nuts and bolts

I am very interested in this battery especially after your report. In the fact that my starter will stall out trying to start my bike in the cold can't be doing it any good. I may just have to get one of these. Keep us posted please.

So these are nothing more than Deka's rebranded. What am I missing here? Just go but the Deka

Got a couple hour ride in today. I am very impressed with the battery.Hot starts without compression releases is no problem.The 500cca spins my 98" hot rod better than when it was stock. I would recommend it in a heartbeat.That being said I hope it lasts like any of the others I've had.My bike is an 06 and this is my 3rd battery.Only time will tell.     Coff 06

Deka will manufacture any battery to private label specs per min order. there warehouse here in ontario ca. has many private label batteries on the shelves. there are only 3 agm battery manufacturers in the usa. only 2 manufacture powersport segment batteries.
