Hey all, well it seems my current battery is getting weak on my '04 1300. Tough time starting this weekend. This will be my 3rd battery since purchasing used in '09. First replacement lasted about 2-1/2 yrs and about 16k miles. Second one has been about 2-1/4 yrs and 18k miles. I've been using the Scorpion YTZ14S and have been happy with them at about $75. My question is: In laymen terminolgy, what's the difference (besides twice the cost) between my original Scorpion and this Shorai and this Scorpion.
Now I do know that CCA is cold cranking amps but that's about the extent of it other than sizing. While my beautiful '04 is not being ridden, it stays in my enclosed garage on a standard Battery Tender junior all the time. Does the length of time seem correct under those conditions? I'm not balking at the $75 every 2-1/2 yrs but just trying to see if there is something better out there.
