Default Cheap Battery in London

Any ideas where I might be able to pick up a battery for my Curvy somewhere in Central/SW London. I would prefer it fully charged. Installed an alarm yesterday and it's not getting along with the knackered old battery. Metropolis Vauxhall want £60!

Well bike seems to be starting okay now. But ordered one of Balddood £30 all in. We'll see what happens. Maybe I should get up in the early hours to start the bike and get it charging a bit instead of leaving it all night.

You need an Optimate charger.Even a few hours on it once a week will keep the battery in top nick.Batteries last much longer if they get regular maintenance,just like engines that get oil changes.
