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 :o

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
