Barry, that what you're looking for. IF you have
a Odyssey Bat. now you can remove it's terminals
and reinstall on new Batt. In the future when you order
a new batt. place a "T" after the part number and you'll
receive the terminals with the batt. PC925T will get you
what you're after, UNLESS you seem to think you need
the metal jacket. Then it would PC925MJT. AND it cheaper to order terminals with the batt.

The issue was my trike that is going to Daytona soon had a different battery and it was shot..we went to install new PC925 and no terminals..we never order with terminals as you say they are on the battery in the bikes/trikes...except this trike with an aftermarket noname battery like a PC925

Thank you!!

Then buying the terminal kit is your only thing to do.
Just keep in mind for the next time to include the
"T" in the part number.

Blew my battery up this weekend. Charger never clicked off and cooked it.
Hard to see it bloated in the pic, but I could smell the acid once I opened the garage and there was a puddle under the bike on my brand new concrete floor.

Was supposed to be 40 for 90min... was completely dead from sitting over a year. The timer never kicked off so it was 40 for 8 hours.

I’ve been looking at smaller and lighter batteries to replace it. Not sure any of them have enough ass for the small block though.

Jack...I believe a small battery would work...I used one of these little battery packs to jump start a Bigblock so there is enough juice in it. I also used it to run a Bigblock trike for 20 miles after the battery died when my alternator was not charging.

We’re you using it in tandem with your battery or it was standalone? My booster box will start my bike, but only if it is given time to charge the battery in the bike. Not sure if that is what you’re referencing or not.

It was attached to the battery. But the battery was run way way down each time.

I just replaced a battery myself, I decided to try a lithium battery. Weight savings is HUGE (aprox 7 pounds = 1 HP ) and CCA is a lot higher too. Here is a link to one, I'm sure there are others out there.

Except the lithium will last A LOT longer along with a list of other plus'. You can find them cheaper Paul or you can find them for more money. It's choices just like $15 for a qt of oil or $1 dollar store oil, $25K paint job or rattle can paint job ...

V-Man, NEVER would I pay that much for a battery!! Total Insanity IMHO! MY 1st Odyessey battery lasted 8 years. To each their own.
