Noco a good alternative to yuasa?

I'm not taking any chances with any kind of lithium batteries. I'll stick with Yuasa AGM.

Second, I'd be concerned with the 4ah total capacity. Yeah, that's really 8ah lead acid equivalent, but it's still rather low (stock is 18ah). If it starts, that's great, but you've got next to zero reserve capacity for such a huge engine. If it doesn't start right away, I'd expect very few second tries.

I was thinking the same. There are alternatives that are 6 to 8 Ah, though they may not all be of the same overall quality. It looks good on the website, but it's tiny and needs relatively large spacers to fit properly. If they made one with 8 Ah capacity, I'd be all over it.

Will keep you posted on the performance. I carry a battery starter anyway just in case. For the size I can almost think we could have two of these stacked up and connected in parallel.

AntiGravity (my goto choice) has an 8ah that will fit

But even that is effectively much less reserve than the stock battery. They make a true 15ah that will fit, but only if you put it on it's side and extend the factory battery cables, which for some reason I'm just hesitant to do (one more thing to go wrong and leave me stranded
