http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/924...teries-leadacid-conventional-or-agm-batteries I just got an AGM battery for my KTM 640 for $23.35 shipped. Yeah it's not a Shorai, Optima or fancy, but I mean... come on. Hope this helps someone out.
my 02 1150 gs's battery has died. had on the battery tender all winter, but dont know it's age. looking for best deal on new battery. suggestions? thanks for your thoughts..... kb123
What brand are you looking for? I recommend Odyssey, just Google the battery manufacturer and part number, hit the shopping tab and you will be inundated with options.
http://www.amazon.com/YUASA-YTX14-BS-Maintenance-Free-Battery/dp/B000WJX4BQ for some reason when I checked out, it applied another discount and ended up being about $57 shipped by standard shipping.
Just put an Odyssey 680 in my 01 last week that I ordered from Battery Mart. I was getting an ABS fault on every morning start, even after keeping it on a battery tender. No more faults. I am very pleased with the battery even though it was not cheap.
I got the 20l-bs the specs show it as too big, but the chart they display shows it fitting. I found another source that showed that size as a replacement, so I gambled and ordered it. if you order and it doesnt fit dont blame me! but according to this chart, it will fit
Ordered one earlier after seeing it on SD, good call OP! Edit: For a DRZ400S, needed size is ATX7BBS.
Your right "Note: This product is delivered with an Exact-Fill Premeasured Acid Bottle, meaning there will be no leftover acid to dispose of " Oh well, that's no big deal. I'd be happy getting only 2 years out of it at this price, anything more and that's icing on my cake. This is what i got, looks like it should fit.

yep same one I ordered. good point about the sealed batteries, I think you are right I found those photos on another forum, and did not notice the distinction between agm and conventional types
If you're uncertain at all about which to order, follow this link: http://webcaps.ecomm.gm.com/internet/VehicleNonAutomotive.jsp AC Delco "battery finder" tool. Recreational Equipment->Motorcycles-> (then pick your bike).
For my 2006 KTM 640 ADV, I went with the ATZ10SBS. Amazon says it's too big, but the ACdelco PDF dimensions nearly match (a little smaller) the stock Yuasa (YTZ10S). The battery for the KTM doesn't show up in the "Battery finder tool". It only show spark plugs. Just FYI
