The 545 is a little lighter, but you might have trouble in the winter in PA if it's cold enough outside.

The battery should start it fine, but it doesn't have as much reserve.

so i should stick with the 680, due to more reserve? i did notice a little less weight with that one. thanks.

Shoot, I really don't know anything about batteries, but I'd say that makes some sense. I haven't ever heard of people complaining about the 680 in any climate and maybe they are using it instead of the 545 for a reason?

Anyway, I've got a 545 on order. I saw what Vlad did with his in the stock location and I'm wondering if it will fit under the passenger seat instead. With the spare out of the well and taking weigh off with an exhaust, the balance is going to be more and more out of whack.
