749 Battery part number

Does anyone know what battery the 749 (MY03) takes as standard (or a decent replacement model). I'm at work at the moment and I just want to order one to be delivered.
Cheers

Yeah I managed to find the lightweight alternative... Just a bit pricey really just for a battery (just about to loose a contract I'm working on and I'm skint :( )
Just wondered if anyone had bought one recently and can remember the part number...
The current battery seems to be knackered as it's been connected to an optimate for a the last year or so (when not in use) but is showing the battery condition as weak.

Yuasa part number is YT12B-BS. You should be able to cross reference that across other ranges.

£43.99 - much more reasonable!
