What is wrong with modern AGM motorcycle batteries , I gave up on Motobatts as they were so unreliable 3 in one year 2 were changed under warranty in Thailand , replaced with a Yuasa ?????, Then 2 Yuasas in less than 2 Years in UK ,, Now a Unibatt in UK only 18 months has died its showing 12.8v but 2 cells are down when a load goes on ,, I am trying a French/belgian Made Fullbat this time ,,,

In years past Yuasas and Motobatts used to last me 5 years at least ,,, None of the bike have charging problems ,and I use optimates as well.

Other people are telling me that they are having similar issues with very few bike batteries lasting more than 2 years even on brand new bikes .....
