Before I order, is this the right battery for my bike?

wscott chases batteries and prices for us, you can check his posts.
that deka is also sold as big crank and is about $100 on ebay or amazon
or fr that same battery, same seller you can check easternpc on ebay, might be a few bucks cheap as amazon doesnt get a cut
this last time I went with the yuasa GYZ32HL- for about $132 from phatperformance
it spins the starter noticeably quicker than the deka did- at 2.5 years the deka was getting weak.
I'm hoping the yuasa does better in our heat

East Penn, one of our sponsors has two of these ETX30L batteries but description is slightly different. I might have to call them to find out what is exactly the difference. One says it fits Sea-Doos and one says it fits Harley. But that does not make any sense

Have gotten a few here, free shipping. Same as HD battery half the cost then at Dealer.
I recall reading about 2 HD batteries looking very similar here (w/ similar part #s) but cost was vastly different, turns out one was made in China I believe. So read thoroughly before clicking 'buy'.
Also, some of these have recessed posts (a few mm back from the edge of the battery) so you get the little "D" shaped washers to attach your cables. I hate them things. Once years back I dropped one, lost it, and couldn't install a new battery on my Fatboy as I couldn't find anywhere locally to buy one! A touch of super glue holds them in place to mount the battery (found this out later).
Anyone know what the D shaped washer is called specifically? Looks like the smallest one in this photo but quite thick
small one lower left
