Battery, spec, price, where from?
 
OK, Bike been on optimate for 2 weeks whilst I was away. Had it out for a play for a few hours on Thursday and come this morning dead.


So the battery is original and now 6 years old so guess I have had moneys worth

Quick trwal on the net and I can get a Yuasa YT12ABS (is this the correct one for a curvy) for £43.49 inc of delivery from The Fast one , is this a good price?

£45 from here

or I'm sure when I was looking I found some for £32. Sure I posted it on the forum. I'll have a look.

__**EDIT**________________________________________ _______________
Yep I did really good pice for that battery.

YTX9A-BS for £32.99 inc delivery:

Call me daft, but why would I pay £51 from Knight when I can get the genuine Yuasa for £43.49 inclusive of vat and delivery?. Must be the Yorkshire half of my genes becoming dominant

You now suggest the YTX9A-BS This is an acid filled. Are they suitable for the SV?: where the OEM is a gel filled and sealed battery. Presumably Suzuki go for a more expensive battery for a reason
