I used this one before switching to Lithium. Worked fine for me.

I used one in the K0 since April 2011, still going strong.  The double output is a handy feature too.

+1, mine is about the same age and still going.  The best part is they will sit for 6 months or more and still fire the bike ;D.

i got mine for around 71$. so its cheaper here than in the US?? Even they have to ship it here. Dont like the color but who cares,its under the seat anyway. Whats the use of 4 terminals? never had this before and im not an electrician.

The battery is a multi-fit.  One motobatt battery will replace several different sizes of lead acid battery, they do this by having the four terminals and also the spacer plates to go under the battery to raise it up if required.  Simply use what you need and leave the plugs in the others.  ;D

Correct.  I installed one in my Kawasaki H1 500 as Scorpion does not make one to fit.

A mate of mine had one in his boat.  The battery died a couple of years ago, 2012-13ish, and was built in 1987.  It was an awesome battery, but very hard to get in Australia these days.

I run a smaller motobatt battery in a cafe bike, this was it's 3rd season going strong and i really like the dual inputs.
I am anal-retentive about battery maintenance though.  If i've been on a lot of short stop and go rides or the bike sits more than a week or 2 at most I plug it into the battery tender to keep it fully juiced up.
