Yeah thats the way they are. Turns over very sluggish but mine has always started. Been very reliable. I guess the twin spark plugs helps.

I use NOCO Genius for all my batteries with no issues. CTEK is also highly rated. Keep the poor llttle thing fully charged for the big donk it has to crank  :o

Yeah I just got a brand new battery and it still feels tired when starting.  Might try for higher CCA next time ....I had a M109R ... and got a battery with higher CCA , it sure is noticeable, turns over quicker .

Hi Scotty, I've been using a CTEK 1 for a few years now without any issues but to be honest they are all pretty much of a muchness.
Welcome to the forum by the way.
