About 7 amp-hour is normal, but what I would do is measure the battery compartment dimensions, then go to walmart and buy the biggest cheap 12 volt battery that will fit.

Be sure to check your quad charging system to make sure it is charging your battery. Start up the quad, run the engine at a fast clip with the headlights off, and measure the DC voltage across the battery terminals. It should read 13.5 to 14.5 volts DC. If it doesn't then your new battery will be quickly ruined, and you will be back in the same boat again.
