Default Battery help

Please understand I'm in the office and not near my bike and not near a HD shop. I need to replace my battery TODAY. I have an '02 Electra Glide Classic. What are the specs of the battery I need to replace it with?? I need the proper size, posts etc. but can someone tell me the CCA's I need and any other detail I need to know about? Gonna start making some calls to find the right one for me and go pick it up at lunch.

deka makes the batteries for H-D.

website says deka distributor for your area is:

Voltex/Bartow Batteries Inc.
11 Felton Place
Cartersville, GA 30120
Phone: 770-386-3848
Fax: 770-386-1953
Email: www.voltex.com
voltexcart@dekabatteries.com

call and ask them who in you area stocks batteries.

the deka website will also give you info for your model bike ( YB30L)

you'll save probably 25%

Advanced auto carries the east penn battery, Deka is the same company and they are HD OEM. Much less that stealer.
