Battery Preference for '01

I'm looking for opinions on replacement batterys. I've got a Yuasa now that leaves the ABS lights flashing after start up. I've had good luck with a Panasonic in my Airhead; last one lasted 5 years and I didn't really maintain that one as I should have. I'm considering Odyssey, Westco/Panasonic...any others?

Winger, I think this one might be a bit too far for you!

JoeC, not sure what you're getting at here...anyway, bought the Westco battery today at my local BMW dealer. Made my decision based on the fact that the parts-counter man said the battery price was going to increase by 30% next month. Apparently lead, steel, petrol...etc. is very much in demand for all the construction going on in China, Brazil and Dubai. When changing out the old Yuasa battery, (lead and water), the case was only half full of water. I'm surprised the bike started!
Check out this link...amazing!

Winger is well known on the Boxer forum for supplying good batteries at a decent price and then people passing them around the country to get to the buyer. However, getting one over to you might be a bigger issue.

Right-O Joe C! I'm all set with the Westco battery installed. Now can you help with a Lennies induct? Still available or similar product?
