They are out of these batterys at least until the end of the year. Should I just go to Kragen or the local battery shop to get a battey?

I just ordered an AGM battery for the XS650 from Batterymart.com. Price was $54.95 plus shipping ($12.90 to my address). according to them it will fit all models of XS650 and dimensions are par with stock battery.
Bummed me out when I saw MikesXS was out of stock.

Here's an alternative AGM battery from a place I like to deal with.......
www.batterystuff.com/

The specific correct size for the 650 is....
www.batterystuff.com/p...HL-BS.html

I've been quite impressed with these Scorpion AGM batteryies and they're
available in exact sizes for the old Honda's including the CB 450's & 500T
(The only AGM replacement for stock sizes I've found btw)

Some of you may be interested in the info to be found on their tetraethyl
lead octane boost additive.....Good stuff too.

Note that their prices are delivered.....from Grant's Pass, Oregon
Great value in my book, nice people to deal with and very informative site.

Best, Blue

My local autozone carries them - I paid about $50 3 years ago - and it's still going strong - best motorcycle battery ever!
