Anyone got any preferences? I had a really long push today, across 3 fields and about another mile to get to where I could ask for a jump start. Battery just died on me AFTER a good run of about 20 miles at a decent average. That should have been long enough to put back the starter drain. Ran flawlessly once the box had been refilled with new sparks. It is the original battery from 2009, so I think it is trying to tell me I need a new one.
Motobatt have been mentioned, other people say don't go near them.... I just want a reliable battery that will last a good few years under normal circumstances. I am NOT paying £150 to save a couple of lbs by getting one of those Lithium jobbies, it isn't a racing bike - I can eat more than the difference in battery weights!
So go on folks, point me to a bargain please.
