What kind of battery is this?? I would like to find a dry cell that fits the 400ex.

ALL THE BATTERY'S THAT ARE OF THE YT OT YTX LINE ARE AGM(ABSORBED GLASS MAT) DESIGN. THE ACID IS ABSORBED BY THE FIBERGLASS MATT AND IS THENM CLASSIFIED AS A GELL BATTERY.

Have you seen the dry cell used on some jet skis and Harleys?? I have one that I use as a jumper battery - Its awesome but to tall for the 400ex.

I just bought one a few weeks ago. It is the same size as the stock battery, but it has an extra 65 cca. It is a YUASA (so is the stock one) The part number is YT12a-BS. I paid $75 at my dealer.

Thank you all of you for your responses. My local dealer had an interstate battery in stock so I went ahead and got it..

Pappy,
I appreciate the help on assisting me if I needed to get one.
