1972 XLH Sportster - replacement battery
I need a battery for my '72 Sporty. Walmart's Everstart line is a good value. My old Interstate battery has 825YHD12 stamped on the bottom of it. I looked at Walmart online and it shows the following as the replacement:

If anyone can confirm that this is the right battery or has an alternative idea, please advise. Thanks in advance for your help!

I saw the same battery on the walmart website. It said it was at my local store. Long story short they had never seen one like it , didnt carry it and I ended up going the my local battery specialist.

do yourself a favor and put a agm battery in that bike .
agm =absorbed glass mat.
my 91 , has had one for a few years...
no-longer a pain to check water ( agm doesnt have water never needs checking)
no more acid burns on the bike ...agm does not leak.
wont spill if you drop the bike , wont boil over
mine is over five years old ..so I dont know how long it will last.
