    I have an old acid battery in the bike I bought that its not holding charge, was wondering what would be the best upgrade battery to buy.

    Bike tries to start but wont fire up and battery goes flat pretty quick, so need a good one to determine fault.

    Seems like petrol is dripping from bottom of exhaust, so have an ignition problem.

    Thanks in advance.

    AGM batterys are good no need to worrie about acid level.

    fuel dripping out the exhaust is more like a carb float needle issue

    TCI will not fire with less than 9.8 volts on battery when cranking it over
