So my Battery is 4 1/2 years old, always on a battery tender no indication of any problems....But what are the forum members thoughts on replacing it for this up coming riding season. Just to be on the safe side... If your thinking yes any recommendations that wont break the bank   Thoughts

The battery in my 2012 is still going strong after 10 years.  Unless there is an actual problem with it, I'd let it ride until it dies.

If it's always on the tender when parked at home, I'd just hang on to it until it starts to play up.
Chances are the tender (if it is a decent one) will warn you of any problems before it lets you down.

Thanks for the input so far, that is my initial thought but there's that little voice saying "if the battery dies 5 hrs from home and 1 hr from any place to get a new one" Then I will kick myself for not spending the $ and replacing it? What is the norm as far as MC battery life?

Listen to that little voice...   If it's enough to worry and think about, it's time to change it.  Goes for tires too.  Life is too short to stress over these things.

Yes I hate to spend the $$ but being stranded because of a $100 or less battery would stink for sure.

On the C14 that's an issue as it's impossible to push start it with a flat battery.
I have had to push start my motorcycles a few times over the years due to failed batteries.
These days I have Breakdown Recovery so I would call them and get them to jump start the bike so I can get it home.

Most decent batteries last 4-8 years depending on how they are treated.
I don't consider Yuasa to be a decent battery. Most of the failed batteries I have had were Yuasa.
They suffered (and so far as I can tell from the numbers of failed Yuasa motorcycle batteries on various forums, still suffer) from a design flaw where a weld between 2 cells will break, which renders the whole battery useless.
Since I stopped using Yuasa, I have not had one single battery failure. They just fade away giving fair warning that they are soon going to die.

Any recommendations on a good reasonable priced battery? Thanks

This is what I use in my 2008 C14. MotoBatt MBTX12U.

For some reason lots of sellers are advertising the MBTX9U for the C14.
I'm pretty sure that the battery in the later C14s isn't smaller, but best to check the battery dimensions.

That's the same one I used in my previous 2008.  Worked well.
