The BMW R60/7 takes the YIX30L-BS case. The Antigravity ATX30 RE-START is a drop-in for that case: 880 cranking amps, 6 lb, a built-in jump start that saves enough charge to get you home.

Every R60/7 from the first 1976 model through 1980 starts on the YIX30L-BS case, a 12-volt starter battery. BMW ships it with a lead-acid battery that starts to fade after two or three seasons of short rides and off-season storage, and that is usually the day a rider goes looking for something better.
The lithium drop-in is the Antigravity ATX30 RE-START: 880 cranking amps, 6 pounds, the same case in lithium. Its RE-START function puts the battery to sleep before a parasitic draw can drain it, then wakes it with one press for a jump start. Charge it with a lithium-compatible charger or maintainer for the off-season and it outlasts the lead-acid battery it replaces by years.
