Replacement battery

Post by Kenbo »

Having issues with the battery on 2008 Varro 1000.
It is 8 years old and not holding a charge. Checked voltage at battery with bike running and getting 13v so happy it not the alternator.

Looking at this as a repacement.Varro replacement battery from "Motorcycle products"

Anyone had experiance of either this type of battery or this seller?

Link is just an order page, no detail.

I'd just get a decent battery as per the original, 8 years is pretty good :)

+1 If your original battery lasted for 8 years I would just buy the same again.

9 years on my last one and I was probably a bit hasty to replace it!
