Great quality, unbeatable warranty

Great battery! This is the second time I purchased a Banshee battery. You won't find any other company that offers a longer warranty time than Banshee!
It is strong and holds charge very well.
Only complaint is sometimes the dimensions can be a little off due high manufacturer's tolerances. One time the battery was slightly bigger then it should have and with the second one, the pole was slightly deeper which in both cases made installation very tricky.
Still, I'd buy it again.Read full review...

It's NOT a battery, it's a Banshee paperweight, it's also not a warranty when they won't respond.

These batteries do not last. And after they die a quick death, there's no bringing them back to life. My lithium charger doesn't even recognize that a battery is attached. They claim a two year warranty, which is worthless if the seller will not respond after THREE messages through Ebay. This battery had VERY little reserve capacity, even before it quit completely. It lasted three months. Better batteries that cost much less last two years or better. A google search will reveal this "Banshee" brand to have common premature failures. Claiming to have a superior warranty than the competition is an empty lie. You don't answer my RMA request. I send three inquiries over a two week period with no response. Anyone who is considering this battery please heed my warning: Do not burn your hundred dollars on this chinese paperweight. Get a REAL battery. After all, the only truth to be had is right on the battery case: "It's NOT a battery, it's a banshee". It turns out, that a "banshee" is a battery that only works for three months. Tomorrow I will buy a real battery, for less money, and it won't be from these non responsive thieves. Read full review...

Nice

I'm very happy the battery holds 95% all the time which on a motorcycle is very good very light but doesn't come with nuts and screws terminals so keep those from old battery

Best warranty available

So far, so good! Has performed as expected for a brand new battery. Check back in a couple of years to see how this battery is doing.

YTX9-BS Sealed Maintenance Free Battery 12V Powersport

I haven't actually used it yet. My current battery was showing signs of weakness so I though I would get ahead of the game and have one as backup. It also has a four year warranty which is much better that the others in the industry. Read full review...

YTX12-BS High Performance - Maintenance Free - 1996 Honda Magna V4 - Does The Job.

Banshee YTX12-BS High Performance - Maintenance Free - Sealed AGM Motorcycle Battery

I bought this one to fit in my 1996 Honda Magna V4 motorcycle. It was half the price of locally available batteries, so since I had a bit of time, I ordered one.

Once it arrived, I installed it, and sure enough it started the bike - in spite of old gas that had been sitting since a few summers. It was a perfect fit in the bike's battery cage. The two posts were on the correct side of the battery.

With that, I cleaned out the carburetors, changed the crankcase oil, inflated the tires, replaced the old gas, lubricated (& tensioned) the chain, and the bike has been starting with ease each and every time. Battery has been in the bike now for just over a month, and I've been riding it nearly every day to work and back.

At this point (with one month of history on the battery) I would recommend it. I would buy another one if needed.

Good quality, good price

This seems like a good battery but, how will I know until we wait for the warranty period to expire
? If it starts the ATV the day after the warranty expires, I will consider it a good buy.

Battery totally drained after starting

It meets all my required specifications, physical dimensions, cranking amps and polarity +/-. The bike was able to start, adjusted timing, choke, held idle proceeded to shut bike off. Mechanic went to get his helmet to test drive bike. The bike would not start, a Lithium Ion battery charger was put on the battery, would not accept a charge, ZERO volts. Read full review...
