Battery YUASA or OEM Honda

I have the true start now. Previous one is yuasa from 2004 that lasts a good 17 years.

My '11 Fit had a aftermarket 151R battery. Mine occasionally produced a similar noise such as this on cold day starts. I think the noise stems from the starter, perhaps the starter solenoid that doesn't retract after you release the key from start position. My issue went away after I replaced the battery

I’ve always used Yuasa and always get at least 7 year’s life

Yes, very true. The closest you get to 100% SoC, the more the battery degrades. The ideal SoC would be at around 50-60%. But 80% is also good. (My EV has its lowest limit at 80%).

I had an oem yuasa last like 15 years...replaced it with another yuasa thats over 4 years old now...no issues so

I ran a yuasa in my victory for nine years. It is now on its second life in my lawn tractor- 2 years and still going strong. Battery tenders for the win.

I’d take a Honda battery over a Subaru one any day if the week.

The stock battery in my 2016 Honda died after four years.

Yes! I had to change mine in just a year and a half!!! I was so surprised because it’s Yuasa and it’s not the first I buy for my bikes (during the last 15 years).

Put a Yuasa in my Street triple and it lasted 1.5 years almost exactly. Would keep it on the tender in cold months every so often, never killed it or discharged it, and still died which was disappointing for the price and the “OEM” brand.
