I still have the original battery in my 04 FLHRS, and I'm noticing it's starting to strain a bit when I start it, especially if we've had a cold evening. Haven't ever used a battery tender with it - but then again we ride year round and it doesn't ever get below 40-45 deg here, so not very harsh. Wondering what people like for a replacement? Stocker? Or some other brand of battery? Thanks for any suggestions.

The bike needs to be ridden a bit more to keep that battery charged......

My 02 Ultra still has the original battery. Yours should be good for a few more years!

My Batt seems to be going south. Might be because of the heat here in Phoenix. Thinking about a Odyssey. Pretty expensive.
Any thoughts on the Odyssey?
