Those types of battery usually have zero protection for under or over charging. Think of it sort of like a Dell laptop battery mixed in with a Galaxy 7 Note.
What will get you is called "Thermal Runaway". LI-ION technology is a bit different than other battery types. With many types of electronics, there is a temperature increase associated with using them. This increase in temperature generally results in a slightly higher resistance, which causes less power to flow through the device. The process will eventually reach an equilibrium in which the amount of increased resistance causes an associated decrease in power and a balance is reached. With LI-ION, that does not occur. An increase in temperature in the device can change internal conditions such that more power is available (LI-ION don't like the cold, but they love the heat. They even have special start-up procedures when the temps get into the freezing range). If there's a short circuit inside the battery and no battery management system is available, the battery will explode and usually start a fire.
I would never use one of these types of LI-ION batteries on a motorcycle for any reason.
That is good to know. Fuller gave us the battery to use. http://speedcell.com/
Don't know that much about them. I have been using it in one of our bikes. It quick charges in 20 minutes with a regular charger. Let me know what you think.
