Hi guys can anyone recommend a decent battery for my Gt750j - the bike is used infrequently and i seems to need a new one every other year despite using a trickle charger in it

Oh - the same issue applies to my CB 750

Batteries like being used, so if you don't they don't last long. They need partially discharging and recharging on a regular basis. Just permanent trickle charging is no good as the plates sulphate and don't hold as much charge.
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.
