I read on HDForums that Tri-state batteries make the HD batteries.

The Odyssey batteries only have 185 CCA while others have over 300. I wonder why that is?

Dealer or other, just make sure it is a sealed AGM unless you choose to go with the Odyssey. There are few actual manufacturers of batteries left in the U.S. These few make them for plenty of OEM and others. The Yuasa AGMs are excellent, on par with the HD branded.
