What is the biggest battery has anybody fit in a 2000 Mille? I'm considering about getting an AGM YTX14-BS or equivalent however I think it's possible to get a bigger battery in Length. I just want a bigger battery for aux power. I'm willing to a cut/mod the rear black plastics to fit and I don't mind if it sticks out more than the original battery as long as the sear closes thanks

P.S. I just upload a Battery Cross Reference Chart on the File Vault. It's waiting on the approval of the Mr. Mod. I hope it helps someone else

The YTZ14S-BS has almost the same cold cranking amps dude, and will fit the Mille. The YTX16-BS is too tall i believe. See here

If you want something cheaper, go with the YTX14-BS

14BS is 14 ah 130mm tall and 16BS is 19 Ah and it's 161mm tall, it has about 28% more capacity. It's same price 65 USD with shipping! The AGM batteries are very expensive here in stores at least 80 bucks. I need the extra terminals for charging the battery and my power aux jack for my future gps, cellphone, amp and ipod. I think I will end up cutting the bottom off of the battery bin and let it stick out with that beautiful Yellow color. I don't know how to let it hang in there though I might use a steel belt or heavy duty straps. or just use a big hose clamp around it so it won't drop...
I hope it won't hit the tire on the first wheelie and explode on my ***. lol I can't imagine sticky AGM acid on me! lol

150AH? dude you really made me laugh Lone Ranger. lol I'm not planning on installing my Ipod and an amp. GPS is a must have for a bug encrusted nomad like me though and the GPS screen is more readable while doing stoppies! lol I just like yellow objects, I have a Super Yellow Fetish. So what? lol

beware, that cut out in the hugger is to clear the battery tray/box just in case ..any longer length hanging dowm may just hit if you go 2 up or hit a big bump

I don't sell fish and do the "bananas" anymore, it's too risky man. lol (a joke from the famous Brazilian Film; the City of God). Dear redratbike I don't think anyone wants to read my threads on this forum after my eyes pop out of their sockets just like the zombie on your avatar. lol
