Hi

I have a yuasa YTX12-BS battery fitted to my 03 RSVR and I am having occasional sluggish starting problems, seen from other threads that I could need an upgrade on the battery & starter relay. Battery has been fitted for 4 years and on optimate most of the time which still comes up as all OK.

Took the cover off to see if there is any acid left in it as I heard this can evaporate over time. Its completely dry inside.

Can I add distilled water or is it knackered :dunno

Cheers
 
You wana get a varta 12b-bs battery mate. Its slightly smaller but is 12ah not 10. It turns over the engine with ease.
 
Alright mate I have a yuasa YTX14-BS slightly taller but still fits never had any problems, starts first push every time.:thumbup
 
Cheers guys, ordered a YTX14BS gell filled. £60.00 ouch
