Default Battery?

Do all the newer Harleys have an AGM from the factory, or are they Lithium, not sure which my 21 bob has in it.

Definitely does not come with stock with lithium, that will cost you 3 extra bills straight to HD if you want that.

Why no manual with a new bike? Was the bike pre-owned?
