A bit confused about the "required battery size"..
04/16/17 at 16:52:57

My battery just died and I'm in shopping for new one.
According to "Technical Documents/Reference › Battery and Charging tips...", battery model, suggested by Servobot is Yuasa YB14L-B2. But, Oldfeller, two posts down, posted that the required battery size is 5.31" x 3.5" x 6.56".
According to Amazon, Yuasa YB14L-B2 has different dimensions (see attachment).

Am I missing something? I'm assuming Amazon got it wrong, right?

Just cause your post has to do with something technical, doesn't mean it goes in that section.

Tech section... HowTos/technical data
RSD... all questions about the savage

same battery different dimensions...

BTW: spend a little more, get a maintenance free AGM

Because that's what I've got in mine. Yb14L-B2 (m2214b). Didn't see an option to select different sizes

If it isn't I am not sure how I installed one in my bike. I changed out the factory batter for the Maintenance Free Yuasa because it was a Royal PITA to add water to the factory battery. Kenny G

The YUSA stock one was way down on water every time I looked... just a matter of time. Perfect fit btw.

The factory battery is 9 years old but shows no sign of dying. I've never had a bit of trouble out of it. It's probably at least getting low on water!
