On all 2000 and later KTM electric-start four-strokes, and particularly those late models without a kickstarter, use the Yuasa YTX7L-BS (or equivalent) battery for improved starting. It is the same size as the standard YTX5L-BS, but has more cranking power. Other brands of battery have similar battery choices.

I just check the Yuasa web page and it said that the YTX7L-BS is one inch taller than the YTX5L-BS, I think it wont fit in my XCW 450 2009!
