[Ducati] batteries

Hi Robert

Depending on how original you want to keep the bike, I would be tempted to keep it simple and do without the battery.  The horn will be a problem though.  If you do want to run a battery, capacity is not important as the bike is kick start and has no computer.  So the only real considration is the physical size.  Look for one that fits the space on the bike and has the right kind of terminals in the right places.

As far as the type goes, I'm old fasioned and would stick to the traditional flooded sort.  Having said that, I must admit I run AGM batteries in my truck and boat with good results.  My only adventure on my bike was an AGM on my Elefant that lasted less than a year.  I'm sticking to Yuasa flooded for now.
