The Shadow 1100 is a motorcycle where the battery changed mid-run: 1987 to 1990 takes the HYB16A-AB, 1992 to 1995 the YTX14-BS, 1996 to 1997 the HYB16A-AB, 1998 the YTX14-BS, 1999 the HYB16A-AB, 2000 the YTX14-BS, 2001 to 2002 the ATX12 and 2003 to 2007 the YTX14-BS. The plate above names the source for each year, and the table shows every run we have on file, so match the year to the case before you order.
For 2003 to 2007 that means the Antigravity ATX12 RE-START: 360 cranking amps, 3 pounds, the same case in lithium. Its RE-START function puts the battery to sleep before a parasitic draw can drain it, then wakes it with one press for a jump start. Some trims of this model take a different battery; check the code on yours. Charge it with a lithium-compatible charger or maintainer for the off-season and it outlasts the lead-acid battery it replaces by years.
