Sorta. The S680, D680, S925 and D925 are all used for OEM motorcycle applications.

You have two choices here. The D series are for in-car use since they aren't wrapped in the metal sleeve. The S series, however, is for under-hood applications. Its wrapped in a metal sleeve to prevent swelling.

These would definitely be popular with the guys who dont want to relocate a stock size battery.

I personally have an optima redtop. this is my commuter car so i like alot of power for music and just in case i forget my headlights are on ect ect.

I normally stick with Gel cell batt's also for that very reason. But the weight kinda bugs me. It's every bit of 30+lbs

Throttle fixes everything. Love is kissing your rear bumper into a snowbank at 40 mph and not leaving a scratch. If hookers carried active differentials in their purses and knew how to use 'em, I wouldn't be married. Left-foot braking fixes everything the throttle doesn't fix, including impotence and poor self-esteem. Banging off a rev limiter while looking out a car's side window and slamming into a steering stop will cure cancer. If the car isn't moving around under power, you are a small, testicle-free squirrel. The handbrake fixes everything left-foot braking doesn't fix, including philosophical issues with most major religions and the heartbreakingly impossible question of what you should have for dinner*.
