Daytona T595


icon09 Mar 2012 08:58
Whats the best battery to stick in my '97 T595?

I've just got it back after lashing out the best part of £900 getting the spag clutch sorted after it let go. Apparently the battery is knackered after standing around for a year so I need a new one. Can anyone recommend a heavy duty one?
I'm a bit paranoid about the starter at the moment but don't want to do the gel/conversion I've read about as I'm not convinced I won't sell it soon to try and get back some of the cash I've spent!

thanks

make sure the battery is commissioned properley as most early faliures of batteries is due to them not getting the correct treatment at the start of their life.

A bit late but something worth considering.
A electrical cable upgrade - made such a difference to my T595 - turns over quicker than it ever has and I have had it since 1998.
Trying to save my sprag.
