Battery Recommendation ?
I may need to replace my Yuasa AGM battery, can anyone recommend a brand they have had good luck with ? In the past I have had Interstate and the stock Harley batteries. I was kind of thinking this time about trying a Deka AGM battery. Thanks for your comments.

thunder volt by ultima. I got 7 yrs out of it and it is still cranking the lawn mower a year and a half later. The deka I replaced it with is already suspect and has been charged twice this winter.

Batterymart.com big crank, with all the extreme cold weather we have had for the past month my bike fired right up without a problem. the battery have the beefy lug connections not the crappy square type that you have to use nuts & bolts.

I just ordered the same from Amazon, $139 plus free shipping. I heard good thing about the 500cca. Will give it a shot.

In response to Chuck U Farley the battery you just ordered is the one that died on me after 1 year 9 days. I also ordered it through Phat Performance, waiting for them to open so I can call them. My bike is always garaged and hooked up to a battery maintainer.

I have that battery in two bikes, I thought it was the cat's meow. I have my suspicion now. Installed one a year ago, and now it cranks like a HD battery. It first it turned over very fast, now I get the hesitation then crank. I think I am with the OP on this one. They have little to no warranty. You have to contact the seller, which is ok, but Yuasa does not back the seller. At least that is what I am led to believe, somebody prove me wrong, please.
