Hello all, I couldn't find an existing topic discussing this. I'm currently away from my manual. Does anyone know what the recommended battery size/type is for the 1996 k1100rs? I'm looking at getting either an oddysey or westco.

I use the Westco 12V20P. I get about 4-5 years out of them.

Others will recommend the Oddysey PC680 with terminal adapter kit.

You may find other pricing elsewhere....
