The cheapest Yuasa battery in the UK!

Hello all,
I bought a Yuasa YTX9-BS for my XTZ form here: YTX9-BS Yuasa * FREE CARRIAGE*
It was £34.99 next day delivery included (with acid packs), the cheapest I could find in the UK.
Just wanted to share this info on the HUBB in case you need a quality battery cheap and quick. Mine arrived well packed this morning and it is all OK, I have no relation with the shop by the way, it's just a recommendation.

Just in case you were interested.
Regards to all.

Hi

First post!

Make sure they are real Japanese Yuasa's, not "made under licence" as some have started to claim to be.

I had a Yuasa battery from my local bike shop £33 which I tried to return after 4 months as it would not start my bike , I could jump start the bike from my truck so was sure the battery was at fault.
The shop would not change the battery said it was ok.Battery went down to 9.5 volts under load
I asked where the battery was made and there was no made in ? on the battery or the box.
How do you know if the battery is made under licence ?
Thanks
