Best Gen 1 batt please

Cheers matey, I was told that two fit but one is more powerful than the other, is that the powerful one?
 
I have a YTX 14 BS That's the same battery as recommended by Griff, but made by Yuasa. (Griff uses Varta)
Just got it today, it's on charge as we speak, a little taller than the original,
so it needs a spacer of some description on the clamp.
 
Daz, like ash says I think they're a little taller than std. A new battery for me is on a list of things to be done when it goes to AP for a service after payday,:beerchug
 
Just ordered one from my supplier £26.83 (numax) same as yuasa in every way. I sell yuasa batteries and it has been explained to me that the numax brand is exactly the same.. I'm happy with that, includes same day delivery to me...:yes
 
Thanks Ash, just got it on bike and on charge. It was a bit taller as stated and had to fit small spacer for battery retaining clamp..Happy days.
 
My original yuasa lasted 8 months & for 3 months before that it was playing up.The Rob Hunter thats on at the moment is working fine , the cold cranking amps is what you need the bigger the better. There is not a lot of difference in manufacture in my opinion between any of the big brands be it yuasa , varta , exide or enersys.
 
If its working Tricky, as you say, it dont matter what is says on it.
 
5 days with no attention, key in and it started first pull, it's had a reprieve, a good thrash round over the last two days.
