It's a Chinese battery, not that all Chinese stuff is bad, but the Super Tenere needs a really strong battery. Reading reviews on Amazon, many complaints of 1yr life ect. It may be fine, but for the extra money I would stay with the Yuasa.
It always gets on my nerves to start with when Chinese use the Yuasa number. YTZ14S is only made and sold by Yuasa, the Y as the first digit means it's a Yuasa battery. For other manufacturers to actually stamp YTZ14S on the battery really sucks. They can put MMR14S, CHINA14S ect, and that I have no problem with, but to actually stamp the YTZ14S pisees me off to no end, and I'm such a hard guy to piss off. :mad:

The Yuasa is what comes OE in the Tenere. I've killed my battery twice 'cuz I was a dumb ass. BUT, it's four years old, and still cranks fine. When it finally goes. . . . yeah, it's going to get replaced with another Yuasa; YTZ14S.
