i am trying to find what battery i need for a replacement on my 2005 vstar xvs 650 classic ....
my old one wouldnt charge and i got fed up with it so i pitched it. later remembered i forgot to write down the numbers off the side of the battery.
now when i call autozone. they have a grab bag of information they reach into when giving me an answer. .so i thought i would ask here..
anybody know what size ? or if you have a 2005 vstar 650 what number is on your battery an whered ya get it..approx cost. ?
i know its a 12v however the numbers on the side, also reflect a certain size to fit in the battery box. .so any help would be appreciated. autozone priced me one that they " thought" would fit. i saidni dont need a " I THINK" i need a " I KNOW" .. sry fellas .. just fed up with people not knowing what theyre talking about an just guessing.
Do you have a Batteries + Bulbs store near you? They have the best battery I have ever used.( I thought I hit 2005 when I got the link, but all VStar 650 use the same battery)
Xtreme 12B-BS AGM replacement battery designed 100% maintenance and easy fill instructions to be ready in minutes. Perfect replacement battery for Honda, Kawasaki and more
The bad thing about conventional flooded batteries is that constant vibration kills them and the 650 is a bone shaker!
Get the AGM if you can afford it. About 100 bucks.

If there is an Interstate Battery shop in your area they will prob have your battery in stock... for a 650 maybe $80
you will find the best deals at batterysharks.com - you enter your make and model and they will have the OEM (correct) battery for your bike, for about $40 with free shipping in a few days
the one thing you have to check if someone tries to sell you a battery and you are not sure if its the right one: the battery posts have to be on the correct + and - side, or the cables in your bike wont reach
lol well. i wasnt referring to the battery when i said it was hard to part from ole ben. lol i meant ben franklin, the 100.00 bill i had to part with to PAY for the battery lol
