I can't speak to that brand, but Yuasa uses the same YTX14-BS number for the battery they supply for the Valkyrie.

even better and a 3 year warranty and 8lbs less

I just bought the same battery for my Interstate. I am totally happy with it and it is about 60.00 less than I have been paying for name brand batteries that only last a couple of years. Seems to be good construction too. Go to their website and save a couple of more dollars.

This is the one I just got:  http://www.batterystuff.com/powersports-batteries/YTX14H-BS.html  Note the 240 cranking amps, plus it's a rebranded Yuasa.

I get all my motorcycle batteries for batterystuff, good prices and great quality.

If you didn't see this

Warning: Do not use a battery charger with a desulfation mode and/or a peak voltage exceeding 14.8 Volt. We recommend only using the DelTran Battery Tender Junior Lithium PN: 022-0198Li

yes using a standard charger will cause the battery to thermal runaway and burn you bike to the ground.
Very bad

Looking at the two Yuasas for our bikes, the regular and the extra CCA, I seem to recall someone posting that the extra CCA battery actually has less or smaller cells, thus it would put out more amps, but it's projected longevity was almost certainly shorter than the standard.  I only get the standard Yuasas, and on 24 X 7 B-Tender Jrs, they last for many years.

I have a few extra plugins, but nothing drastic, draw wise.  And I am careful not to run them all together.

After my recent house fire I Googled battery charger fires and most I saw resulted using the wrong type of charger with a Lithium battery especially RC battery [packs.

Some took only 30 minutes to rupture in flames.

very aware, only a standard battery charger can be used, which I use.
