The highest capacity is 75 amp/hour (sometimes 72 or 74 A/h) and the UK number you are looking for is for a normal cranking battery that fits in the underseat box is an 096

Not all 096 will fit. Some are 175 mm high and some are 190 mm high... you need the 175 mm high one.

Just a normal lead/acid type preferably with removable bungs so it can be topped up with distilled water.
