Good/Fast/Cheap...........Pick any two.

Guessing its a YTX-14BS battery. If so I've had good luck with Duracell from Batteries Plus for around $120 + they come with a 3 year non-prorated warranty.

,  Had pretty good luck with Chrome Battery, AGM, shipped from US and comes with 18 month warranty for about $54 - $60

My pick of those would be the Marathon (Deka, made in PA) AGM.

Chrome from Amazon. Plug in the right part # and it will cross. Odds are you can get more CCA and a slightly bigger battery for the price just check measurements.

Thanks for the suggestions.He got one from Walmart for around 60$ that has more ccas than the one he had for 9 years.He modified the space for its larger size.It is a backup bike so he didn’t want to put an expensive one in.
