Any battery experts out there?

In after some advice/help? I'm rebuilding a xs250 bobber and I'm limited for battery space I've got my hands on a 12v 6ah 140cca agm battery and was wondering if it'll be ok? I've swapped the head light,tail light and indicators for LED and the speedo is digital LED plus it will only be used during nice weather not as am everyday commuter, any help would be great

You should be okay unless you have problems getting the bike to run. That battery is small and a couple attempts to start the bike will probably drain it. My Maxim starts with a 1/2 second of cranking, but I have a 14Ah 175cca lead-calcium agm battery.

Thanks Dave it's just that I'm struggling to find space to hide a bigger battery, the bike starts pretty easy so hopefully it'll be ok

With a 250cc motor I think you will be ok.
