I need a new battery for my 01 Kat 600. I'm contemplating getting a Yuasa RTX 9-BS for $82, but Parts Unlimited carries a battery that has the exact same part number for only $53. Could it be the same battery by Yuasa? Are Yuasa's worth the money or should i get the Parts Unlimited one? The parts store I was looking at them at suggested looking into it to save some money. (Great store! see my post in gearing up) Any information would be helpful. thanks

I hate Walmart- more, even, than I hate D&D's! Worked there for a while- saw what they are really like, from the inside. Don't beleive all the rah-rah crap you see on their commercials- that only works for those who's development was arrested in highschool.
Besides, I get a good corporate discount at Batteries Plus- better battery at lower cost."Stevie B" Boudreaux

i got a yuasa maintance free battery for my kat and it is great. over 1 year old and has always fired the bike up even when jetting wasn't the greatest. I recommend the yuasa, and buy it locally, the dealerships around here will rip you off in a heart beat, but got mine for ~$75

The best deal out there for a Yuasa battery. It is called Firepower but it is Yuasa maintenance free. I am glad I did not get the battery yesterday from the dealership!"I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows.

got me a yuasa before winter
couldn't be happier with it
fired the kat right up even in 20 degree temps after sitting two weeks
yuasa is the cadillac of batteries
went to the stealership and told 'em the best price i found on the net was $65
and if they wanted my business they'd match it...they matched itYou're Welcome,

my dad bought a new eiger 4wheeler and the batter went to crap in 7 months, and the warranty was only 6 months. I think the battery has a 6 month warranty just got to check the site.
