NOT DUCATI!!! They wanted £90 for one for my 748 In the end i went to my local shop and paid £50. Its the same as the one on an R6

Try Battery City, (Naff name!) They're in Shefford, only just up the road, sorry haven't got the no. but they're in yel.com if you do a search under that name, or Shefford Auto Parts.
They've just supplied a battery for my lads GSXR600 for £20.00 that looked identical to the original on the bike, don't know about Duke battery prices though.
Regards, Pete

£90 Chris? ..Baines tried to stiff me for £119 a few years back for one on my 916

Know a few good local places mate..but not up your neck of the woods..

Id just look up abattery suppliers in the yellow pages as theres quite a few chains nationally that do ALL sorts..!

Cheers
