Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Ultra Classic FLHTCU Motorcycle Battery

When it's time to go, you want to go. A dead battery can't slow you down. That's why, if you need a new battery for your Harley-Davidson Electra Glide, come to Batteries Plus. Batteries Plus has the best selection of powersport batteries to power your bike, including traditional flooded batteries, as well as AGM and lithium options.

Harley-Davidson Electra Glides run on powersport batteries. A powersport battery is a specific category of high-performance battery used for certain powersport applications, like motorcycles, ATVs/UTVs, snow machines, and personal watercraft. They're built strong for long-lasting use and typically require little to no maintenance depending on the specific battery type or brand. Traditional flooded batteries are one choice. While flooded batteries are the most cost-effective option for your Electra Glide, they typically have shorter lifespans than an AGM or lithium battery. An AGM battery may end up costing less in the long run, because of their longer lifespans. They're also maintenance-free and spill proof, and offer much more vibration resistance than a flooded battery, which is something you need when you're riding. They're better able to acclimate to extreme heat and cold, too. Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries   are the safest and lightest batteries available. Due to their superior chemistry, lithium batteries have roughly four times longer lifespans than most batteries and charge up to two times faster. The battery you choose is up to you, based on your budget, riding habits and the amount of time you want to spend on maintenance.

With all the best intentions and superb maintenance, sometimes a motorcycle battery will need a jump to get it started. Can you jump a motorcycle?   Absolutely. Matter of fact, you can do it using the help of another rider and their bike with jumper cables, or you can do it alone with the help of a jump starter or a jump pack, like this one from NOCO.

A typical AGM motorcycle battery should last from three to five years, depending on a few factors. How long do you ride? What's the climate like? Do you overwinter your bike   or ride year-round? In order to prolong the life of your Harley battery, you'll want to choose the right battery charger.
