Replacment Battery
I own a 1995 Heritage Softail Classic 1340 V-Twin.
Looking for new replacement battery with some high CCA
Currently have a Yuasa YTX20HL which is always on a battery tender, but It seems to have trouble when first start when the ambient temp in the garage is cold. Clicking sound.
Not sure if the battery is aging out or if I have some other issue.
After riding, and resting, it starts right up. Just having issues when bike sits for a week, then a cold start.
I've read that Harley OEM batteries aren't that good and crap out after 2 years

Done that. Battery has been in bike since 2013, so I think I got my money's worth. Looking for a brand recommendation..

If you want to go lithium I have been running a Banshee battery in mine for the past 4 years with no issues, but AGM the Yuasa that you were running works well as well. You got 8 years out of that one so I call that a good battery. Typically you'll get 5 years from a motorcycle battery anything longer is a bonus.
