Motobatt.  Quite possibly the best batteries ever made. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_W0QQitemZ130402346870 Review http://www.boulevardowners.com/cafe/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=157926 CX500 TURBO CX650 TURBO '04 GSX1300R Hayabusa    Report

If cheap head on over to your local walmart, meijers or what ever and pick one up there. There are expensive options that you can mount upside down but most people don't need that. 1979 CX500 Supertanker ATGATT makes riding a bike like a sled easier. Quick Reference    Report

It has a 2 year warranty, higher specs and is a sealed maintenance free battery so you do not have to worry about the water level every month.  Best of all it is only $10-20 more than the wet version and is priced about the same as the other sealed upgrade batteries (YTX14AHL) This website sells all three versions http://www.impactbattery.com/powersports/yb14l-a2/ and has pretty good pricing regardless of which brand or version you decide on, but personally I like the MotoBatt simply for the extra year warranty.    Report
