You could try Saskbattery.com. I bought their Yuasa clone a couple of years ago and it's still going strong. $79.50 with free shipping in Canada. Link.

All depends if you want the Yuasa or not. I've been pleased with the Adventure Power clone so far. Price is in CDN$ and shipping is free. It arrived about a week after I ordered it.

Sounds like a plan. I'll wait and do some calling around here before taking the plunge

The local 'AutoZone' here listed a OEM Yuasa for $89.99 Great price for OEM. I usually get a min. of 5-6 years on a battery. My bike is garaged though-heated.

Owning a motorcycle in Canada is just a little more expensive than south of the border. Good thing we don't wear them out as fast due the to the climate difference. :lol:
