20L-BS battery fits in my 2010 R1200RT
I don't claim that this is THE best battery for the RT, but it is available at the local farm and fleet store for a lot less money.
It has a high amp hour rating, it is shorter and thicker front to back but will fit in the battery box. I used a piece of stiff foam to make a spacer for the top. You will have to get a little creative with the terminals connections because I think they are at right angles to stock battery, at least they are on the correct sides.
Exide Powersports 20L-BS, comes with acid you fill and then permanently seal. Working good for three years so far.
