Hey guys not sure if these have been discussed here but for anyone that doesnt know about these great little batteries heres a link to an ebay listing with them:

6 of these cells will easily run a 250 or 400 and would probably be sufficiant for a 600. They weigh like 70grams each so thats 470 grams + whatever housing you decide on...which could end up being glad wrap
So there is huge wieght savings to made too. I was using 6 of these to start my xs250 when i was getting it going and they provided a strong current, the starter motor came on nice and very strong.
But the great thing is you can lay these out however you want, it doesnt have to be in a conventional rectangle battery housing. These batteries are very small, you could have them all in a line hidden under the seat for example. You just need to hook them all up together like RC batteries.
I have no idea on how long they last because i just hooked them up to start my bike and run it, but i can say 6 of these provided PLENTY of current when fully charged. My brother researched them and put them in his R1, apparantly guys are using them on the track for weight savings. But for us the main advantage would be the concealment possibilities.
