I'd stay with the HD brand. They haven't given me any problems if you trickle charge them....My .02....

I can't believe that you already need a battery on an 06. Well actually I do believe you, however,I had two Harley AGM batteries last about 7 years each. I would replace with an HD battery.

Thanks for the replies. I can't believe I need one either but it won't take a charge.

DEKA makes the AGM batteries for H-D. The locally owned parts house a couple of blocks away from me stocks them for way less than H-D gets for them.

I will probably stick to the HD as well when its time. I have heard good things about Odyssey but they are pricey.
