The FJR has the original battery. 9yrs old. (She's a 2015)
I did the research, and thought I bought a correct replacement.
Nope.
I hate it when this happens.
The gray one, is the orig.....

I'm a non-paid spokesperson for Bulldog Battery on Vine St. I use them for all my batteries and had nothing but really good luck. Been buying from them since about 2017. Just got my quad battery from them about a month ago. Although your proximity to them at this point might not make it the most convenient...

I've used Bull Dog in the past. Matter of fact, my 2011 Equinox has one of their batteries in it now. I think I got it at around 80k miles, now has 178k.
According to all the Internet FJR aficionados, Yuasa with the AGM technology is the way to go.

While Dave and crew were destroying differentials (In all humor) I was in Maggie Vally NC.
"Tail of the Dragon" was on my bucket list, and so it was accomplished. Also, was the Blue Ridge Pky. All in all, 1582 miles in 5days.

Tail of the Dragon is a pretty incredible stretch of road. Did the photo guys get any good pics of you in the turns?

Like this?
I'll eventually break down and buy a couple.
