Ask for hog discount at the counter, which is 10% and pretend you will join. Worth a try. |

I'm sure they are not that price at Riders of Bristol. Bosch and stuff are cheap (see Ebay) but the terminals are set back so you end up having to bodge with washers and stuff... Do tell if there are other batteries with flush terminals... |

I use these batteries, bought two this year for other bikes and have to say that they are very good, the Buell battery I have is the original, so 9 years old, I suspect I will be buying another soon! http://www.wemoto.com/bikes/buell/xb_12_s_lightning/05-07/picture/battery_motobatt_sealed_high_torque/ |

Bought one of these for my XT several months back, uprated on the standard oem spec battery, and half the price. http://www.mdsbattery.co.uk/shop/produc ... mentID=155 |
