In need of help.
Im looking for a smaller than standard battery that will still have the power for the bike.
1989 1000 exup
Im building a street fighter so battery box is not a problem, but the space is.
The bike should have around 200 cca as standard

Lipo batteries are the way forward for your application, they are tiny.
A lead acid of smaller size may be substituted and still be more than capable.
I have had to do such and remove 20% of the front of the battery box to enable the fitment of an aftermarket shock
absorber where the remote res. fitting conflicted.
All I did was measure the available space and take said measurement to a local bike shop and purchase a battery that fitted.
A Fzr 1K, as any other ILF, does not require a huge battery capacity to start effectively.
