AFAIK no issues, the onboard battery management system should take care of balancing the cells, prevent over- and deep discharge...
(quite popular in the café and racing scene due their low weight and small dimensions; i.e. hiding them in the tail-cone...)
For me ending the 'buy a new one each spring' and the short charging times made the difference...
(also that NOCO supplies their cells with solid plastic spacers, and not the foam crap included with most others...)

I've used a Mottabatt for at least 8 years now in the Viffer and it has been brilliant even when it was run to flat when the regulator failed. A full charge and it was back to normal and that was three years ago.

Motobatt on my VFR as well for quite a few years with no problems at all.

Only one switch 6v or 12v that’s it. Many years of service on car and bike batteries.

Have had a Motobatt on my 400/4 since I got it in 2019 with no problems ( touch wood). Just charge it up once a month in the winter and it seems fine.
