AGM Battery

I have looked at Z1E website, didnt see an AGM battery.
I am wanting an AGM ( Sealed) battery for my 1975 Z1-B 900.
Any suggesstions on where I might look?
Thanks!!

I have had the same deka sealed battery going on 3 winters, It cost me 110 bucks and damn worth every penny

Thanks,where did you find the Dekalb battery?? We're they able to provide you the Battery with their fitment info? Or did you just say give me a certain size? Thanks!! Ed

yeah,I am trying to remember what size my bike takes, I know it's 12Volts,I mean the numerical size like Y12xm or whatever. Is yours a '75Z1-B900 with stock battery tray?? Thanks! ! Ed

I also got a Scorpion AGM battery from batterystuff.com --- It was 12.79 volts straight out of the box & it holds its charge --- much better than the wet cell batteries I've used in the past. If unsure of the size, either try the diagrams at Kawasaki.com or partzilla or the Yuasa battery site.

Mine is a 750 twin. Not sure what size yours uses. Measure the dimensions and you should be able to size from there.

Just called, they are in Oregon, so will call back later when they are open.. I am hoping that the battery is a direct fit. Dont want to get into modifications, I will ask about fitment before I order.
Thanks bountyhunter
Ed

Called again, spoke to "Anthony" and ordered a battery!
Comes USPS, I shall let ya know what I think after I have installed it.
Thanks bountyhunter!!

I recieved my "Scorpion" AGM Battery yesterday. I am probably going to get slammed for saying this...but as a Vietnam era Vet, I wasnt pleased to see the country of origin was Vietnam. ??? :-[
If I had it to do over.....I would probably have paid more and tried to find a made in USA Battery, if that is even possible anymore!
I will probably install the battery tomorrow, if I dont say anything else on the subject...means I am satisfied.

Here are some links to a nice motorcycle battery test (and the followup)... www.intruderalert.com/cafe/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=157926

Based on this test I bought a Motobatt AMG battery and it performs perfectly. One added bonus is these units have extra battery posts for hooking up accessories. The bad is that they are yellow, and said hook ups can interfere with fitment into your bike. For example, the battery post fitment blocks use of the tool tray that fits right next to the battery on my 750E. Still gotta sort that out.
