I like Odessey AGM. Been using them more than 20 years with good results.

Yuasa agm, seem like they discontinue it soon maybe. Had hard time tracking one down. Had the fair price. Added acid and charged. Did same with other bike, this year seems to be when all mine needed it. Although my first time getting unactivated batteries and adding the acid myself.
