It seems my battery just bit the dust. It lasted a long time. You think i would be better off going with the stock Buell battery? How much are they? Are they Gel batteries? There are some on Ebay but I am not sure how old these batteries are. I figure batteries have a shelf life. I want to make sure I get one that was manufactured recently. Regards Mike |

i believe the stockers ARE gel -- I picked one up last summer for between 50 & 60 USD to replace the OEM in my Y2K bike (old one hadn't died yet, just showing it's age -- great deal, really batts DO have a shelf life -- there are date indications on them -- sometimes the date is printed, sometimes it's a sheet with month/year circled or otherwise indicated given that they ain't lightweight items, shipping could add considerably to the total cost of an ebay batt |

I think I paid $68 for a (stock) HD battery for my M2. It seemed like a good price for something I know works... I bought another one as a gift for a friend of mine with a dead Fatboy. Batteries make great, great gifts if the person you're buying it for needs it. |

Stock batteries are AGM batteries. |

It seems hard to go wrong with the stock HD battery. I have three bikes, all with HD batteries...2001, 2002, and 2003. Mark |
