You'll also want a decent CCA (cold cranking amps) rating - around 200 should be good. If you need help getting at the battery - take a look at my "How To" on the subject. Also, see this thread for more information on getting the best possible life out of your battery. One aftermarket battery that I know does meet V-Rod criteria is the Yuasa YTX14.
It's a false economy. Either go for a high-cranking lead-acid battery, usually fitted to touring bikes or a Lithium battery which has around 50% more cranking power than standard lead-acid batteries. The noise you can hear isn’t the battery clicking but the starter solenoid.
Those 2 batteries have the same size and specs, but the Yuasa Vrod battery is 2 lbs heavier and is referred to as "factory activated". Has anyone tried this battery? Anything good/bad to say about it when compared to the stock Harley battery? You are going to struggle to find a battery that is significantly superior to the OEM battery.
AGM batterys however are more of a High drain battery best suited to starting. Yuasa and other companys make AGM batteries that are the same size & specs. But having experiance in testing these batteries, the DEKA or OEM Harley batterys Repetedly come out well above the specs.
Both JMT and Shido are quality brands. They are both lightweight but cunningly they use the same physical-sized housing as a standard battery so you don’t have to mess around with foam padding. If you want the ultimate in compact size and weight saving, then go for an Aliant but you’ll need to pad out your battery housing box.
We’ve listed every model of Harley Davidson we can find. We’ve used the popular brand Yuasa as our reference. If you don’t want a Yuasa battery, never fear, you can use our motorcycle battery cross reference chart at the bottom of the page to see the corresponding reference number for other popular makes including Exide and MotoBatt.
