Default Need a new battery, suggestions?

Hey Fellas,
Its only a matter of time before my battery is done and I dont want to buy a battery from the dealer. Anyone have a recommendation for a 2013 Deluxe? I appreciate the suggestions.

Batteries plus, same battery as the factory with no bar and shield so it's about $50 less with a 2 year warranty......

Just bought one this week for the FLSTC...bought several Battery Plus Batteries for my bikes over the last several years with the two year warranty. Be sure to ask for a discount or check their website for a coupon. They also give 10% for Veterans.

I always go with the AGM mc batteries at Walmart. They are made by Yuasa. I have routinely gotten 8+ years out of them. It is hard to tour the US without being very far from good ol Wally World.

The 20 series runs $76.

FYI , whatever battery you get , make sure you charge it up so it has a full charge before using it . They will say it`s already to go ....but do it anyway , just my 2 cents . Milz
