You may be able to run a scanner with the old one................. Just saying.
I'm saying that Yuasa does manufacture batteries in Pennsylvania. I also know that Yuasa makes batteries for Drag Specialties with a DS label. It's common for some manufacturers to infuse some items they don't manufacture.
The DEKA HD touring battery is a 400cca battery. The Yuasa is a 500cca for the same touring bike. They are are not the same battery.
Yuasa's manufacturing facility is on Montrose Ave. The warehousing is the north end of the property, and the manufacturing and office space is on the south side. It's a big place. They may buy some batteries from other manufactures, but I can't see them doing this for any majority of their battery line.
However there is a DEKA battery warehouse one tenth of a mile from the Yuasa plant.
I don't believe Yuasa "makes" anything. There have been three manufacturers of automotive batteries for at least my entire adult life: Johnson Controls, East Penn, and Exide.

Makes sense to carry a battery power bank, I had a battery that was only ONE year old and it died when I was out in the mountains one Sunday afternoon miles from anywhere.
Luckily I had a power bank with me and could start the bike and find a store open about 20+ miles away...stress or what!
Agree. Carry jump pack. I have seen two newer batteries fail last couple years. Maybe with rising cost skimping to keep price down. Demand from electric market increasing demand and price maybe
