Edit: sold!

I bought a battery off Amazon and they sent me the wrong one by mistake. They are sending me a refund, but won't take it back, since they don't accept return shipping on batteries.

I'd rather not take a brand new battery to the HHW depot and prefer to give it to someone who can use it. And I'd much rather give it away to someone on GTAM than Facebook.

Does anyone want this?
I'm located in Mississauga if someone wants to pick it up, otherwise could meet somewhere once my correct battery comes in early next week and I can ride again.

This is the one I received: Amazon.ca
Seems to get decent reviews as a motorcycle battery too.

That’s great to know. Last week I picked an AGM, same size as this from Canadian Tire for $125 (I fill and charge vs $150 ready to go). Never thought of Amazon for a battery.
 
Checking with a buddy who has a Superduke
 
LOL, missed out twice for my 990! Was going to post about being next in line after EZ's post, but figured it was a done deal and then ignored the thread. Oh well, hopefully it fits for the new owner.
Sorry - there were a few people interested and it went to a good home - a 1290!

I grabbed a replacement battery - this time I got the Yuasa for my bike and what a difference a new battery makes for cranking power. Can't believe I rode with my last battery so weak for years!
