I would say to check the warranty they have too.

Bought a die hard for the motorcycle last April. Had trouble starting the bike so I took it back to Sears. Bad battery. Worse warranty. 6 month replacement and after that, buy a new one. Went to O'Reilly auto parts and got one 30 dollars cheaper with a one year replacement warranty.

not sure about how their warrantee system is or works but, cheapbatteries.com is the cheapest battery site I have found. I haven't ordered anything from them but when mine goes I'll probably be ordering from them. A gel battery is definately the best way to go in atv's/v-twin motorcycles due to the vibrations that they are subject to. IMO

They were the cheapest I could find too. But I wanted to ride the bike today, so had to go with what I could get. Would have liked a gel, or even a sealed battery, but the bike is going to be traded/sold soon so not putting a lot of money into it.

I bought the Batteries Plus battery and it comes with a 2 yr warranty. Good enough for me ;-) I also have a tender which I rarely use.
