They pretty much all use Yuasa batteries, they have different models based on the needs of the bike.

I don't suggest you put an ammeter at your battery unless you have a heavy duty meter that can take the sort of amperage the battery will generate. We are talking 85 Amps or so at start. Your standard ammeter is going to be fused around 10A that you buy at sears/wally world and such. 1 Amp can kill you. I don't suggest anyone mess with your electrical system unless you know what you are doing. Too easy to damage and get yourself hurt.

Your CCA max is just that a max. It's not something you want to get near. Most standard import motos are around 75A-85A start and anything much above that is considered abnormal and you probably need to start investigating where the amperage is going.
