My buddy ended up purchasing a MotoBatt MBTZ10S (8.6 AH, 190 CCA) battery to replace his Yuasa YTX7A-BS (6.0AH, 105 CCA). I am not familiar with the MotoBatt brand and welcome any comments on the brand. The two batteries are almost identical in length, width and height specs. The MotoBatt weighs 7.4 lbs and the Yuasa weighs 6.3 lbs. I am assuming the 17% weight increase in the MotoBatt is attributable to more lead and hence the better AH and CCA specs. Is this a pretty safe assumption? The Yuasa sells for $69 and the MotoBatt is $79. The MotoBatt also has a 2 year full replacement warranty where as the Yuasa has a 1 year warranty. Since my scoot also has a Yuasa YTX7A-BS I am thinking of going with the MotoBatt when my battery reaches end of life. Thanks in advance for any and all comments.

Sorry to hear of your mishap but glad you faired as well as you did. I can certainly relate.....Back in 1969 I hit a 10 pt buck on the NY Thruway doing 70+ on my 1964 BMW R60. Somehow I managed to keep the bike upright till I got into the grass median strip, then I lost it. Ended up with broken left leg, but I think I was really lucky. Totaled the BMW and the State Troopers wouldn't even let me keep the venison....Go figure!

Nearest AutoZone with a YTX7A in stock is 105 miles away.. He will order a Yuasa tonight and we will postpone our ride for a few days.

Well. my buddy's battery has shorted cell so he is holding funeral services this evening. The battery is a Yuasa YTX7A- (12 Volt 6Amp Hour AGM). Any recommendations on best brands, where to purchase? We have postponed our ride scheduled for tomorrow. All advice is most welcomed.[/font}

You can not boost BOTH voltage and current. One or the other. As sailracer said "energy can not be created or destroyed."
