St4s Tech Spec for Battery
 

My existing battery (5 years old) is now not holding a charge well. Time for a new one. So I am looking at getting a stronger more durable and powerful battery.

The latest Varta LF range of batteries have been rated very highly indeed by the german motorbike press so I am thinking of getting one of those, however, I do not know if they do an LF range for the ST4s.

So my technical questions are these for the ST4s battery:
a) What's the Battery Capacity in Ah?
b) What's the Cold-Test Current?
c) What's the Hold-down Type?
d) What's the Pole Position Number?
e) What's the Terminal Type?

These questions may sound crass but they are not, for example there are many different types of "terminal codes", "hold-down types" and "pole position numbers" in the battery world and I for one find it very confusing!

Given this technical data I can punch it into the Varta website and come up with the LF Type battery code number.

Many Thanks if anyone can help.

I didn't want a flat battery on my way to Blight on the 24th - it's 1200kms from here door to door.
