Spend $100 and get a lithium ion battery. Well worth the upgrade

Probably meant my response.
Lighter, no acid to discharge and have plates fuse, more cranking amps, and it's cooler to say "My bike is powered by Lithium Ion Technology"

it is a GS, I guess that's the brand, and then these are the group of letters/ numbers- GTX4L-BSmike932 wrote:kimmie, what is the item number of your current battery?

I agree with DeeDee. Get this battery:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Replacement-Bat ... Sw4CFY6C1B
And charge it at least once a month using low amps with a battery tender like this.....
https://www.amazon.com/Battery-Tender-0 ... der+junior
And practice kick starting your scooter so you will know how to do it if your battery dies.

You will never find a better price than that ebay link. Here is one for $18 that ships from New Jersey so you will get it faster....

A similar battery will cost about $50 locally.
It also has 4 amp hours instead of 3 which will give you a little more juice.
Typical battery lasts 2-3 years. It will die sooner if you don't keep it charged which is why you should charge it once a month with the battery tender. Charge it as soon as you receive it too.
