I bought a 2000 Hayabusa yesterday, a Christmas present for my self and something I could watch evolve into something exceptional. It was far from mint but a long way from being junk. It fired right up and the seller informed me that it was a new battery. It was a Chrome S Pro 7A-BS. I'd never heard of this battery before but being out of the game for several years I figured that maybe I was behind on the new tech. It had a led screen on the battery showing the amount of charge. This morning I fire it up and take it down the street and she's pulling like the Hayabusa I remember of old then in first gear at low rpm it stalls and after 3 or 4 attempts to restart it the battery dies. I could not even jump start it. The engine just turn over slowly and then back to a dead battery. This on a friends shop model 200 amp battery charger. It's been on the charger since and the LED screen on the battery indicates no more than 11.8 amps and a fully charged battery would be something like 13 amp plus so it looks like he hosed me with a cheap battery that's probably meant for a ATV 4 wheeler. Evereything is closed today or I would have taken the battery to have it tested but I think I will just order a Yuasa YT12A-BS tonight from Amazon since I have Prime and their free 2 day shipping.
