Is a replacement Lithium Battery the way to go? How have you installed yours?

[Mikey]

I have gone to the Noco 20 battery 1 year+! Jury is still out on it in my book, we'll see if it holds up as well as the stock brand! I will say that I love the charger I got with the battery, it does the standard batteries as well as the Lithium!!! works well in my book. Battery, I will let you know in a few years!!

Yes NLP20 is what I used.

If you're just worried about moving in the box you could use some Styrofoam or dense rubber foam to fill up the open area.

I just modified the bracket a little so the battery clamp would fit into the NLP recess (only took a few minutes on my grinder). After that it was as solid as factory. Put 2k miles over the summer on trips with no issues.

I have just bought and am about to install a BS lithium battery - BSLi-10 - to my 2019 F3-S. Has anyone on here got one of these batteries?

If you've been using a battery tender, make sure it's designed for lithium batteries.

It is. I checked, but thanks.

What is the model number?

I have the Noco NLP 20 600cca on my 2016 limited

Have you guys considered just 3D printing a spacer to fit the NOCO battery?
I've had a lot of luck with using a 3D printer to make parts for my old Bushtec trailer and it's not terribly expensive.

If someone has a bad/dead NLP20 NOCO battery I could use for measurements, I could likely design a printable 3D model.

I'm still up in the air on what battery I will order to replace the 7 year old stock battery on my wife's 19 RTL.

I was thinking about making a 3D printed battery frame for the smaller battery and skipping the foam blocks if I go with a LiFePo4 battery.

Sorry for the necromancy, but I figured I'd ask.

Installed a NOCO in my Spyder back in February(?) Doing well so far.

Last one I installed came with spacers!

Well, looks like I will have a chance to test this out for myself. my 7 year old battery is at the tipping point. (just bought the bike (2019) with 1700 miles and the battery gave a slow crank and start fail after sitting 3 days. it spent 16 hours on a tender and still hadnt reach the charger completed charge state and had only just hit 13.2V

I'm going to pickup a NOCO this afternoon and pull the YUASA. If i end up doing anything fancy with 3D printing a better way to secure the battery I will make a new dedicated thread. TY!
