I had a MotoBatt (the yellow ones) that lasted for 2 years before it died completely and couldn't be revived.
Fellow club member Andy had the same problem with TWO MotoBatt batteries in the same timeframe.
I've since fitted a Yuasa which was only a couple of quid more than the MotoBatt from ebay, and won't be buying another.

Edited to add: I've done the YT-12 conversion on my Yr 2000 748S rather than using the original massive YT-16 battery, and have never had any issues.

I'd rather die peacefully in my sleep like my Grandfather,
than screaming in terror like his passengers.- Jim Harkins
