My 05 still has the original and sits for months at a time. Have a tender hooked up to it when I'm gone and haven't had a problem yet. When I get home and while I'm home it starts right up every time........Now that I've said that it will probably puke next time I get by the house.

Brought my HD battery to HD this morning, and was told "It's pretty common" and I told them that is a pretty bad answer for a battery that has been on tender for both winters (purchased bike in late 2007) and it hasn't even been two years. "I would be pretty pissed off if it was my battery but there is nothing they can do."
got the DEKA compatible battery, installed it fired up like a champ. DEKA part number is ETX20L. It comes with adapters to make it flush mount like the HD battery, and has screws on top (keep old screws) to screw in battery tender harness/accessories.

Because that lead and acid don't come from the same place your drinking water does. When you throw a battery in the land fill, which isn't too far from your house, that lead and acid makes its way back into your drinking water.
But hey if your of that opinion, why dont you just dump your motor oil in your local lake or the ocean, I mean it came from the ground, it must be ok just to pour it right back on top huh?
