MCX Apex battery

[whitee]

what battery does MCX use in their kits mine has a little one down in the bellypan called a batcap 400 is this what they are using or did someone put this POS in there as a replacement there is not much room for anything big and if I let this thing sit out overnight at the cabin if it gets below zero I have to jump start it in the morning 06 apex MCX

that someone put in...i run my stock one in the stock location...7 years and 3500 miles just replaced it, but i put a battery minder on it all summer...never had to boost it...there were some cold starts..

Often people put in as small and light battery as possible in stock position, to remove some weight from the front.
But i hate the stock position, makes oilchange a pain in the ***.
First thing i did was to relocate the oem battery to the seat, it was super easy, this removed weight from the front and without battery / batterybracket in the way oilchange is done without removing IC.

MCX doesnt supply a battery with there turbo kits. But a YTZS-10 will fit between the a-arms. It has 200cca, been using it for couple yrs in my TRX1. Its in alot street bikes & quads.

RED thanks for the tip on that battery it fit perfectly in the battery box between the A arms best thing with the battery down there is changing the oil isnt sich a hassle

Just passing info along, think I got the idea from RXRider yrs ago. It sure does make oil changes better & alot of other things. Some people say, what if you hit something. If hit something that hard in the front, its going to need alot of repair anyways.
