At 2.3 amp hours, you'll be pretty close to the bone, current-wise.
That may be enough to run the ignition itself, but you probably won't be running any lights.........
Remember, a stock twin of this era runs entirely and directly off the battery.
At 12 volts, 2.3 amps is only 27.6 watts for one hour.
You'll be spending lots of quality time with your battery charger.
Like we used to say about Lucas electrics, "be home before dark....".
I've said for decades that I'd happily trade 10-15 pounds for a more manly battery (more amp-hours), if I could find a place to mount it...... _________________ Bill Lane - CB200-CM200-CB450-C70M-CL350

Please read up on Lipo's before you go that route. My only experience is with RC Lipo's but you ruin them if you under volt, require Lipo charger and can explode, not sure if this applies to the battery you show. Not sure you want this tied to a charging system on the bike.
