[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1144872, member: 3828"] @ SoCal - You keep saying that stuff but that is not my experience with Yuasa (yes, made in the USA) batteries or other aftermarket batteries. I find that, of the batteries that are available to us in the US, the Yuasas are probably the best. That said, I do have a WestCo in my FJR that is going strong after 6 years use now. More importantly, back to the OP, what makes you believe that the your new-ish battery is bad? When you say that it "crapped out" what does that mean? You mention that it is charging at 14.1V, which is good, but is an indication of the charging system health, not the battery condition. What is the battery voltage at rest after being charged?
