Interstate Battery

[VMax1986]

Are Interstate brand batteries good to use in a VMax? Im actually not even sure if I could get the correct size, but if I could, would it be worth it?

Should be as good as the one you would get from Yamaha

Running 3rd year on Universal AGM Battery, 22 AH. So far, great for the money.$60 shipped, then.

Worth checking out. I've let this battery sit without a charger on it. I only charged it when I got it, and once when I left the key on.

As long as it's an AGM sealed battery, it's an upgrade over the Yuasa stocker. No more water or mess.

Not sure if it's still the case but interstate and diehard were made by Johnson Controls. They each had their own specifications but both were decent batteries.

yea stick with an AGM and you should be fine. ive had interstate MC batteries in the past and had no issues with em at all.

yeah i got an agm from ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/YAMAHA-VMAX...Parts_Accessories&hash=item20c6ed7e7e&vxp=mtr . had one of my fz1 and it was amazing. then when that oversized one from sears died a year after installing it, i found out the agm for the gen2 would fit. talk about huge but absolutely great. no problem whatsoever. look up the part number and just grab the one from the gen2 vmax.

you have to do that mod that sean's recommends to get a fat battery in there. fuel filter can stay where it is.
