I’ve had one of these on a bike for a few years. Can’t really comment on quality other than what’s visible as bike sat on a charger a lot and not many miles. I bought the same as the old one “looked” like quality and the specs (capacity and cranking amps) supposedly better than other options. I also had used the four terminals which make these different for attachment of accessories and a charger. So I went for the same to enable a straight swap. Unfortunately that didn’t work out because these have changed in the meantime. They're also not as pictured on Tayna’s website or the manufacturer’s datasheet. They make a big thing of the quadflex terminals and instructions and datasheet show supply of two terminals, four domed hex bolts and a hex key. That’s not what you receive. They’ve changed the terminals to a thinner, cheaper design. You can still attach on the top or front, but no longer on the side of the terminal. The bolts are now ordinary ones with nuts…..and they only supply 2 so the other two terminals are useless until you buy more nuts and bolts. The old bolts can’t be reused. No response from Motobatt and Tayna just said “that’s the way they are” despite me pointing out that this is not what’s shown on their website. I contacted the wholesaler who said they’d put me in touch with a retailer to buy some. Another £7 for two bolts. Or you can buy a set of 18 on Amazon etc for a bit more. Thanks for nothing. Fortunately my old school local bike shop provides better service and quickly found me some suitable bolts. The rest of the battery also has signs of going cheaper on manufacture. A silly thing, but possibly indicative of this is, is that the model number lettering is now in an odd font (the one used by Motobatt usually). It also had another number printed on in a font which just screams “generic cheapo Chinese product). Might be nothing, but if they’ve gone cheap on the terminals and these details, what’s changed that you can’t see?

After having another lead acid / AGM battery go down and leave me stranded with an non-operational bike, the choice to go for another sealed Motobatt was a no-brainer, especially on a bike with some intermittent use. Quality and fit is great and terminals and choice of where to connect too is a bonus.

very good battery, slightly smaller in height (they do include a spacer to compensate) but that is a bonus as there is now better clearance for the wiring. Definately more cranking power and my old Trident has no trouble starting!!
