I'm looking for a decent replacment battery for a 72 FLH (current one bit the dust this weekend, on the road, but that's another story). I noticed that most of the new AGM or gel batteries offered don't come in an early 70's FLH version. Big Boar apparently has one in the works but is not currently available.
My two questions:
1. Any recommendations on an FLH replacement battery? Is there any reason why I couldn't use a different model, like for a late model HD, or are there amperage issues to worry about?
2. If I swap out the stock side-by-side oil tank and battery set-up for a horseshoe Paughco style oil bag/battery combo, could I use a different battery then?
thanks for any tips. oh yeah, the bike has a dual-plugged 88ci S&S motor and a dyna ignition, if that makes any difference on the amount of juice needed
