Title: 2003 stone metal battery recommendation?
Post by: Rico88 on April 05, 2015, 12:38:03 AM

I need a new battery for my 2003 stone metal. What battery do you guys use for the  1100 California's?

This is what I use in my 98 V11EV http://www.batterymart.com/p-Big-Crank-ETX30L-Battery.html It is made by Decka and is the same size battery as most Harley touring bikes. Check the size to make sure it will fit your Stone.

Odyssey PC 680 AGM type battery quite likely to be the battery that was supplied when new. Most likely will last 7+ years avail; able from Amazon for a everyday bargain price

I have the same battery from Batteries Plus and there they call it the Xtreme.  Made in the U.S by Decka and they work.

I bought an Odyssey from Harpers.  Probably could have found it cheaper someplace else.  But Harpers was there when I needed help and parts for my EV after last years collision.  Throw a dealer a bone and buy it from them.  My .02 cents.

What Bob said.  Odyssey makes a fine, long-lasting AGM battery, in the USA.  Harper's is always there for Guzzisti.

motobat. great battery very high cca comes ready to install no charging require before use. very good warranty. and the very best part it has 2 sets of terminals which if you have a few extra feed wires to accessories you don't have to double and triple stack the leads.
