Yuasa YTX20HL-BS lead_acid_battery

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Fits my '03 HD FXST, 310 CCA. I'm activating the battery so no life is lost prior to installation. Good price compared to other retailers.

YUASA is the gold standard of motorcycle batteries. These are OEM for most major manufacturers. After 5 years, the one in my 2020 Indian was getting a bit weak on cold mornings so I replaced it with a bargain brand Lithium LiFePO4. Big mistake. It had more than enough Cranking Amps, but was lacking in Amp Hours. So I cut my losses and returned to a good old American made, traditional AGM like the manufacturer specified.This version comes with the electrolyte pack you add yourself. It is a small extra step that ensures you get the freshest battery possible. The process is very easy, but then you need a 2 amp AGM compatible charger to charge the battery.

Battery works great.

These are awesome batteries, only brand I use for my motorcycles.

seller doesn't get back to you, and doesn't help with any problems

Works on my 2012 Yamaha Stryker 1300! No issues.

Yuasa YTX20HL-BS Battery is USA built.The acid and filler container is made in Tiawan.This is the first battery I've purchased that didn't come with enough acid to cover the plates in the cells, leaving me with this dilemma: Do I trust the manufacturer and go with just the amount of acid that was included, or add just enough distilled water to cover the top edges of plates? I added distilled water. And charged the battery again. So far it's working great, and it should last longer with the correct amount of acid. It's dumb that Amazon expects me to rate "longevity" only a week into this, when a good battery should last at least 6 years in my '01 FXSTD.

This is the third battery from this brand I have owned. The first survived 10 motorcycle seasons, the second lasted 3 but that was my fault, I barely ran the bike 300 miles last year and I couldn't recover it one cell went dead.
