i'm going to give it a whirl. I like that it ships sealed with acid and with some quick googling found out it has 283 CCA

$40 delivered. Geez Louise, tough to beat that price. Even if it lasts only a couple years....
I've been dealing with www.batterystuff.com in Grants Pass, OR. They seem to be real good folks.

It looks like a good battery. Heck, its 18amp hours. Most batteries I see are 10. So it should last, just wonder what it's cranking amps are.

Check the dimensions - I don' think it'll fit the stock battery tray
Length 7.13in,Width: 3.01in,Height: 6.57in
Typical correct size= Length:8 1/8" Width:2 13/16" Height:6 7/16"

damn, i was comparing with a different supposed oem battery size. It'll be a tight squeeze for sure. I'll report back if it fits.
