Default Battery ? (Sorry!!!)

Local dealer wants $130 + tax. Who makes the batt for Harley? Deka? It's an 00 Heritage.
I know this has been beat to death.

Do you have a Battery Plus store near you? If not, find them on line.
They carry the same battery

Yes, Deka (East Penn) make them.

Big Crank at Batterymart.com

DieHard at my local supermarket for $85 is made by East Penn.

while this is true, and Lowes has the best price, batteries through them are generally special-order items (at least near my they are), so it would take a few days to get to them.

I've found the next best place to be BatteryMart, $100 with free shipping, which because of where i am and from where they ship, it got to me the next day:

My stock HD battery was kaput after 2 years, I've used the Big Crank in my bike, and it's been good for 4 years now (tendered in the winter), and I just put one in my girlfriends' brothers' 2001 Softail and haven't had a single issue.

advance auto. There's a $40 off of $100 or over online purchase code on here somwhere. search the site for battery threads and advance auto. They carry the same battery under their own label.

You order online and pick up in store. It'll be around $60 + tax
