[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1414810, member: 19880"] You pays your money and takes your chances. Personally, I wouldn't pay a lot more for one vs the other without specific evidence that one was better. There are cheaper options out there from a variety of manufacturers. People have reported varying degrees of satisfaction with some of these. I still have the OEM in my (recently purchased) 2011 and it is still OK. Don't know if the previous owner treated it as well as I do or not but it doesn't seem as strong as the one was in my previous bike. When I replace it, I will see what is available (and at what price) but will probably end out with the YT14B-BS. (Unless I am on the road somewhere and then I may end out with whatever I can get.) I generally carry a compact lithium ion jump starter in case of surprises! [/QUOTE]
