where can i get honda spree battery??

Post by crystalw25 »

anyone know where i can get a battery for my 1985 honda spree scooter? i went to autozone but they dont carry anything like that. i know if i go to a honda dealership they will overcharge me. but a friend of mine said i can go to wal mart and get a lawnmower battery as long as its the same size. anyone hear/know anything about this?

The auto parts stores should have the right size. It may not be in their computer for a Spree, but for other scooters, motorcycles, snowmobiles etc. Get your battery details from the manual to take in with you and you should be golden.

Just went to Autozone on my lunch break. Try part number: GT4LBSFP at your local store.

You could also check to see if you have a Batteries Plus store nearby.

I would recommend getting an AGM (sealed maintenance free) type. Also look for Yuasa brand and stay away from made in China batteries.

Yes, I have seen many come into my garage with these everstart batteries (maintenance free battery). I think someone told me they come with a warranty too(never bought one myself).

I second this. I've never seen a motorcycle or ATV shop that didn't stock the Spree battery.

I have, but then again, I can't even get Buell parts at my local HD shop. Any shop with a Parts Unlimited catalog can order one for you (I buy mine from an Arctic Cat dealer).
