Default deka batteries EXACTLY the same size as hd?

I'm back do doing some basic work on my bike and I don't want to dick around with stuff that almost fits. Not very patient Any more. I got after market battery for my daughter's sportster which " was the same" but Chrome cover wouldn't fit!! Mine is an ultra so no cover but u guys know what I'm talking about. Very little on a harley is easy if u have the right parts!

i bought a deka battery for my 2010. it is not *exactly* like the oem battery. the terminals are slightly different. but not anything that causes a fitment issue. for almost half of what the dealer charges for a battery, i'll deal with the very small difference in the terminal.
