Need new battery

Battery on my 2001 Heritage softail finally needs replaced. Opinions vary concerning buying an aftermarket battery from say Advanced Auto vs. Harley. Price difference about $40. Opinions please

Wow! 7 years on a battery is great. If you got that much out of your original Harley Battery I would go back with the Same one.

I only average about 2 years on my battery. The perfomance shops will tell you 1-2 years is average.

I am going on 4 years on my Harley battery bought at the dealer. Using a battery tender in the winter I think adds a few years.
