Subject:Buying New Battery Today: Advice?
From:PSavage
Date:Fri, 20 Apr 2001 10:02:07 -0700

Have decided to buy a new battery for my '85 Westy today.
I understand I need a type 41.
All I want is a reliable battery that I can find & have installed
TODAY  in a small town an hour from me--otherwise, I may find myself stuck
under the redwoods.

Questions:
*Do all type 41 batteries *fit* in the seatback compartment?

*Is there anything critical I should know to supervise re the
installation of the battery?

*Warranties & cost aside, are all commonly available type 41
batteries more or less created equal?

Thanks,
Phaedra
