I'm well over 100 at this point.

I ended up going with the etx15 since that's most like the odyssey pc680. I made a lightweight aluminium support bottom so overall I probably lost around 22lbs. So far so good. I saw the one at Advanced and bought the one at Autozone which had a Duralast label on it. Bought some steel collars and bolted them to the battery because the powersport batteries don't have normal tops like the oem battery does.

My 09 battery is also still working well. Just put distilled water in it to the mark occasionally. My original 2002 Honda battery lasted 8 years by following that one simple step. No one believed me but it did.
