Far too much money Alex, but in your profession you are rich. I use a
YTX4L-BS about £25 and it weighs 1.3 kg and ran all last year on the 583 and I've just put one on the 620.

Yes thats the one I use and you can turn it on its side for better packaging. I bought from them also.
After filling I give it a slow trickle charge for 24 hours.

From what I've seen of late I don't think I'll be spending my money on one. I'll be buying a new Yuasa YTX7L-BS for my DD bike

I ran one for 2 years no problems.

It's still on my old bike for this year as far as I know.
