here's a link to a thread we had 2 years ago, scroll up to the top of the thread, there's a link to where I bought it. The "red-top" KOYO is still doing fine in my '47.

How about this? Search for H2 when you get there.

looks like you still can , too! Here the info from Harley's site.
66006-29F
IN-STORE PURCHASE ONLY Contact dealer for pricing and availability.
6V. Fits '64-earlier FL and '63-earlier GE models.
MSRP US $69.95

I guess the MOCO still cares about keeping the old bikes on the road. (at least this tiny bit).
I see they still have the EVO motor rebuild program too. Just think, first EVO in 84. Thats almost 30 years ago. Just think of buying a 65 pan , and being able to send it in for a factory rebuild in 1992.

The Dealer batteries are made in India. Yuasa is the only battery I put in my bike after my fiasco with different crappy Chinese, Vietnamese and Indian batteries. Yuasa's are made in Japan.

I don't think Yuasa has made a 6 volt H-2 style battery in 10 or 15 years.

I used to use the Interstate H-2 batteries, but a few years ago they told me they stopped making them, that's when I went to the dealer. It looks like Interstate is making them again? Or perhaps I was told wrong a few years ago.....

I forgot to mention, I switched to 12v due to the quality of 6v battery quality.
