Greetings,
I have a 2010 Gator V-Twin Kawasaki gas that currently has a Napa 8229N battery. I purchased this battery in October of 2018 and has worked well until the recent cold weather. The battery reads now "replace" under a load tester. This gator does have a electric spray tank in the back for spot spraying during the summer which the gator is usually at idle for. I checked the charging system and the battery does charge when the engine is operating. The cranking amps is 370 and 300 for this particular battery. I have thought about replacing this battery with a Napa 8227N with cranking amps of 430 350 which is about the same size in dimensions. I am considering adding a winch to this gator this winter as well.
Do any of you have any other recommendations on a particular battery?
What is the factory battery cranking amps?
Thanks
Sean
