    Hi
    I have a 2010 which I'm sure doesn't have ABS but the battery last season was not great. Slow starting, or flat if left for a day or two.
    I've trickle charged it all winter but it's no good.

    Can anyone recommend an uprated battery or at least one with a better start voltage or CCM.

    Thank you

    This is still going strong after 6 years

    two options worth considering:
    good value AGM with 120CCA minimum and plan of replacing it every 2 years like a routine maintenance. Don't waste your money on yuasa.
    Alternatively an LFP battery. The ones recommended all have very small capacity, typically 2~3 Ah which is ok if you don't have parasitic drain or are patient with starting in cold temps (<3deg)
