YUASA Motorcycle Battery

YUASA Motorcycle Battery. As I mentioned in The Amazing Ten-Year Motorcycle Battery, the YUASA YTX12-BS OEM battery in my '98 Honda CBR1100XX Blackbird lasted twice as long as I expected.

Can you spot the motorcycle in this photo?

What were we here for? I forget. Something about motorcycles, I think.

The Last Buell Motorcycle

XB12Scg
XB12Scg
Sadly, the last Buell motorcycle, an XB12Scg, rolled off the East Troy Wisconsin assembly line on October 30th.

Buell built 136,923 motorcycles in 26 years of operation. Buell motorcycles will continue to be sold through existing dealers until inventory is depleted.

So sad

Although I've never been the big Harley or Buell fan either, I really do feel sad about Buells demise... I tried a Buell once (forgot the model though) and must say, I was positively surprised. Very good handling and fast too!

Hope some other factory will pick them up!
