Thanks, guys. The battery is for my '02 Sprint ST, Bil.
I called Batt+ back and this time I had the battery number (from atop
the batt). A Yuasa battery cost $59.95 and has only a 90 day warranty,
while the Batt + battery costs $49.95 and has a 12 month warranty.
One of my buddies decided to call the local Triumph dealer (because he
wanted me to ride this afternoon!). Local dealer price was $75. My
same friend called Sears who said their prices ranged from $25 - 60, and
they have never had a problem matching batteries. You just have to
bring your batter in and they'll match it.
I'll either buy from Batt + or take my battery to Sears and see what
theirs cost.
Thanks,
James
