I'm looking for recommendations for a new battery for my 08' RTX. It had a cheap Everstart battery which was in it when I bought it and it lasted 3 years. Also, how long should a good battery last?
Thanks
 

Yuasa. Can't go wrong. Mine lasted 10 years.
 
Had a Yuasa in before for a few years & now Motoblatt in both my sled & wheeler, no issues so far.
 
CarQuest AGM motorsports battery. Got 7 seasons out of the last one. Catch them on sale for $65.00 in the Sept. to Nov. months.
 
Stock is where it’s at.
07 Phazer lasted till after I sold.
07 race quad still has 12.6v stock in it
10rtx 12.4v (she’s 80-90%) getting week.
@71rdrnr sled leaves his here year round.
Maintained they last looong time.

Typically today they say 7 years on a battery.
 
Stock one lasted 7 years, 3rd year on an Interstate built AGM now. The stock one was down to 12.2v resting voltage and only gave one good crank before getting weak.
 
the yusa's last really well for me. most sled ones i replace some where after the 5 year mark and they get put into sleds or other toys with pull cord on them as i know they will start that way. the one in my atv just died and it has been there since 2005 with an occasional charge or solar pannel thrown onto it.
