Answering my own question. It is a one year limited warranty and is pro rated and that sucks for a 130.00 battery.
I can go to Pep boys and get a Bosch battery with a 3 year replacement for less and even way less at Wall Mart with a two year replacement.
All my 1.5 year old HD Brand battery will hold is 12.2 volts and that will not turn over my 883
The Bosch Battery on my Boston Whaler boat is about the same age and is holding 13.4 volts and I have not run that motor for 3 months now

Dealer replaced mine under warranty for free.

New bike? There have been a lot of crappy batteries on new bikes in the past year.

I year from the in service date. Replacement is 6 mos. Prior to 2014 it was 2 years and 1 year on a replacement. Had a battery in my 13 Street Bob replaced under warranty at 18 months.
