I'd stay with the HD brand. They haven't given me any problems if you trickle charge them....My .02....

Just bought mine yesterday from my stealer for 109.00. Thought about switching up but the last one was good to me.

I can't believe that you already need a battery on an 06. Well actually I do believe you, however,I had two Harley AGM batteries last about 7 years each. I would replace with an HD battery.

Thanks for the replies. I can't believe I need one either but it won't take a charge.

DEKA makes the AGM batteries for H-D. The locally owned parts house a couple of blocks away from me stocks them for way less than H-D gets for them.

I will probably stick to the HD as well when its time. I have heard good things about Odyssey but they are pricey.
