Locked Battery options R90S


 

Hi All, I’ve replaced a few batteries on my R100RS (Mono) but never on my (semi new to me) 75 R90S. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good sealed brand to choose for the R90? Same size of course to fit in the tray.

I’ve had decent experience with Odyssey and Westco.

Thanks!
Chris Perry


 

Hi Chris,

The best battery I?ve ever had is the Newmax. I?have been used it reliably for years now on my 1974 R90S which I own since brandnew straight from the crate. Really great battery.

Cheers,

Fernando

MotoBatt (glassmatt) gets my vote, get the black one. A few mm taller than the OEM battery, (just flip over the clamping strap). Much more cranking power and longer life.

Best regards, Kirk Ratzel

Always had good results with Odyssey P620 will work well in your R90S.

Thanks Todd (and thanks Kirk, Steve & Rob for the Motobatt/Panasonic suggestions).

Looks like the replacement battery for the P620 is now the P680. ?I’ll do some research and report back on which one I get.

Thanks all!

Best,?
Chris?

Odyssey Extreme Duty PC 680. Smaller than stock but that allows you to make a small box to take up the space, and store small “ get you home” parts, points, condenser, compact jumper cables, tire repair kit or whatever. I made mine out of stainless, works great.?

I’m using a?Deka Power Sports ETX16L Battery. Made in USA by East Penn and available on Amazon for $115. it’s been borking fine for me.

+3 for the Motobatt - MBX30UHD. I put these in most of my /6 customer bikes. As was mentioned, you just need to turn the battery holder over to get the nuts back on as it's a bit taller.

One of the the nice things about the Motobatt is it comes with 4 terminals - 2 on either side, so adding a trickle charger or other direct power items is easier and cleaner. I've had bikes come in with two or three additional power options all stacked on the one set of posts with only one or two threads holding the whole stack together. In my opinion, you're just a speedbump away from an electrical issue. With the Motobatt you have one set of terminals for the bike mains and the other terminals for all your accessories.

I found a near exact replacement (in white) at my local Sam's Club: Duracell Platinum AGM ETX30LA, even listed for R90S. $120.

My local Autozone has one by the same number for more $$$.
