If you have a Batteries Plus in town check them out. They are, or used to be,
Deka as well.

I went to Sam's Club, about $85 IIRC.
But some folks swear by Odyssey.

Walmart has an AGM absorbed glass mat one that fits my Softail. Mine has lasted a little over 4 year. Going to replace it this spring. I can tell it's low on amps but at less then half of what the last Harley ones was. Made in China unlike their Everstart Car batteries. Last Harley battery lasted 5 years but I nursed it the last year, so truly, they seem the same.

I like Advance Auto Parts batteries for my motorcycle. It is rated at 300 cranking amps. You get $40.00 off when you spend $100.00 (with code Trt41) so my battery came out to $64.00 and if I have problems with it I can just find the nearest Advance Auto store to bring it in to.

My battery only came with a 90 day warranty however. I have seen others with a 1 year warranty.
