I believe it's a BETA vs VHS story.
I'll go with Lithium

I really need to get a consensus. The lithium weighs around 1 pound while the stock HD is as heavy as a bowling ball. It's kinda spendy but suppose to last twice as long as a standard Batt..

Before you get an HD battery, check the surrounding Battery Warehouses for a better battery for a lower price.

Deka Sports Power ETX-30L....this is Deka’s touring size....get the Deka that’s right for your application. I haven’t figured lithium batteries out yet....but without certain features they are prone to fire.

Both Deka and the stock Harley batteries are made by Eastern Penn Mfg. as are a lot of others. There are only a few companies that make all the batteries. You probably have an Eastern Penn distribution warehouse near you. Give them a call. They usually have the best price and often have the one you need that has a cosmetic blemish for half the price.
All that said my local indie guy agrees with Smart Dave on the stock Harley batt. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you for your responses. I could get a decent Batt for around $130 at the Best battery shop. Harley would be a little higher I'm sure.

Found out the Interstate one is made by Yuasa. AGM style.
Not sure if the lithium one can handle the charging cycles of a vehicle?, have heard good / bad stories. But would have to have that fact checked for content.
