evening all.
The daytonas battery is all but dead, so after a new one.
Anyone tried the eBay budget powerline battery? Half the price of the yuasa, but any good?
Guessing I'll play it safe, but wondered if anyone's got one?

MotoBatt - you will not be disappointed in either the price or the performance

Seconded.
Cheap batteries aren't worth it. They need replacing sooner for a start.

Exactly. I've always bought yuasa because they generally don't let you down. Motobatt have very good rep too

+1 on the MotoBatt.
Mine has been faultless this winter.

Shop around I only paid £40 for my Yuasa from main Honda dealer so not worth saving a tenner for a budget brand IMO.

Another +1 on the MotoBatt, you can't put a price on standing by the road side.
Actually I've got one you can have, but I need to test it as it's been standing for over 6 months. Shouldn't be a problem though as it's a glass matt battery.

Went with the Yuasa in the end,
Fingers crossed she holds up.
Then again...the one I've just removed was near on 6 years old!
