I had the original stock battery for 6 years. It ran beautifully and still did but I opted to replace it just because it was so old.

I always keep the electrolite at the right level, remove the battery after every season and keep it on a tender in a heated basement until spring.

Maby mine was an exception, but with proper care they seem to last a long time.

Proud to be everything the right-wing hates.

The Yuasa original replacement can be had for around $60. Just my opinion. No doubt Yuasa's are great batteries. But if you can get a AGM, no maintenance battery for the same price, why wouldn't you?
