Default Battery

I need to get a battery for my bike. Which one do you you guys usually go with. I saw a couple on JC Whitney. One is the normal fill with acid one http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/P...730430/c-10111 and the other is a sealed one http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/P...730430/c-10111
I thinking of going with the sealed one but wondering what you guys usually run.

I run an unsealed version for two years now without issue. Think it all depends on who you talk to

I just bought a sealed one from wally world. Pretty sure it is a yuasa in walmart trim. 49.99 . I only got the sealed one because that is the only one they had that fit in the box.

Go to Murry's or Auto Zone or a place like that and you can get one there for around $50. Thats what I did and it was an Energizer. Pretty good battery too.

I've been having to jump start my bike that last couple days now, I think the cold winter killed the battery.

best price I've found was $80 for a sealed, glad to see that wally world is still rollin back the prices.
