Just for grins i have tried using the .8, 1.3 and 3.2ah all by Duracell and they all worked great. Now living here in the great northwest and all of the rain we get......i just need to wait until April to actually get out there ride.....ugh!

Hi guy, does those 12v 0.8ah battery (UB1208) work fine with stock 1980 xs650 tci system? I mean only kickstart, headlight & taillight.

Hi,
It helps a lot for a quick kick start but you must have a switch to shut off all the lights when you do so. Too much load on the battery and not enough voltage for the starting circuit.
I have a PMA and I don't know if there would be other issues using it with the TCI system. I also use both a capacitor and the battery.
My bike is in storage now though and I was unable to get it to start without the battery in the circuit using only the capacitor.

Never tried but Mike at 650 central says they will. You can see the one he offers in the link

Hello, reviving this thread. I'm curious about the 'standby use' and 'cyclical use' on the smaller batteries.
I'm in Aus and there's a cheap 1.3ah 12V battery that states:
- standby 13.50V-13.80V
- cyclical 14.4V - 15V
Am I right that the stock XS charging system (charging at 14.5V) will cook this? Or is this what everyone is running?
