Uprated battery: YTX14H-BS

#1 Post by Falco Frank » Wed Nov 28, 2012 11:03 am

Just thought that I'd mention in passing that the above battery has been running fine on my falco this last few months and continues to perform well, so seems able to be recommended.

I phoned MDS batteries

www.mdsbatteries.co.uk

and they offered a discounted price of £82 including delievey which I jumped at!

When I had my Falco I bought a yuasa for about £45

Why did you pay £82 when on this page http://www.mdsbattery.co.uk/shop/produc ... mentID=155 the YTX14-BS is £51.99 and the battery you bought is £69.99 http://www.mdsbattery.co.uk/shop/produc ... oupID=2801

Methinks you were diddled

I get my batteries here http://www.allbatteries.co.uk Their prices are typically 25% less than most places I've looked at

LOL - well, that link is for an American website that will not ship internationally anyways....

I got the best deal I could at the time for the performance I was after, IMHO the Odyssey batteries are superb but are even heavier than the YTX.
