This must be the issues with AGM batteries because I just replace my motorcycle battery AGAIN after a couple years. NEVER had issues with regular batteries in vehicles until I started using AGM batteries. There goes 300 bucks. 150 for the motorcycle battery less than a month ago as well.
Anyone have issues with batteries? I had the original battery in my Harley for over 10 years and never hooked it up to a battery tender like the first 5 years. Would always start after winter just sitting.
I don't drive the Z until it's nice out, usually March until November, then it sits for a couple weeks in the garage, most of the time on a tender. Always on a tender during winter.

I am trying out the FULLTHROTTLE AGM battery. Went with a smaller version, since it weighs the same as oem.

I believe I got the FT560. So far so good. Had it on the NOCO genius 10 all winter. No issues. Left unplugged for over a week, and start up no issues.
I htink they are still made in China, but another option for AGM users. Quality of build is good.
