Not sure if anyone has already made the recommendation.
But my battery under the seat of my 90 2ctq started to
leak.  No harm done, but I did not like the idea of that
happening again so I went with a sealed battery for
replacement.  I chose the Optima red top for $115.  Now
I don't really have to worry about venting, leaking or
seeping.
