I'm looking at a Moto also.
AGM. Better at starting in cold temperatures.
I like the dual terminals on the battery so you can run accessories right off the battery. $85 bucks seems like good deal.

I can purchase an AGM for $85, and the MOTO is $124.
Which Motobat are you looking at. Maybe I looked at the wrong one.

I don't know. Old friend owns the battery store, I always go to him. I'm going to get what ever I have in there now, just too old to remember whats in there. Its been a great battery with over five years installed.

Just to give you guys a but of info on lead acid batteries, AGM batteries, and a true well built AGM battery meant for power sports
lead acid- like a traditional yusa the lead plates are suspended in the battery with the acid between the plates. Now when you battery suddenly will not take a charge its because the plates over time have become brittle and cracked due to vibration, jumping, our wacking moguls. 9 times out of 10 the cracked plate has broken and touched the plate next to it shorting out the cell in the battery.
AGM- Absorbed Glass Mat- similar to a traditional lead acid but there is a glass mat at the bottom of the battery to help stabilize the lead plates and dampen the vibration rather than them just dangling freely inside the battery. When these short out due to a cracked plate, the plate has to break into 3 parts. the top and bottom of the plates are held securely, but the piece in the middle that broke touches the plate next to it and battery is now junk.
True AGM- Like a Motobatt- has glass material running from the top to the bottom sandwiched between each plate to heavily reduce vibration and never allowing plates to touch no matter how many pieces a plate cracks. Pic is of the inside of a Motobatt.
If any of you want me to get you a price on a motobatt with shipping, get me the part #, your zip code, and if it is going to a residence or business
