Any 6V lead acid battery of a similar amp-hour rating will do, as long as it fits in the battery carrier?

A "B39-6" may be suitable? http://motorcycleproducts.co.uk/catalogue/battery-bsa-350-system-p-29036.html

I suggest you check the dimensions given to see if it will fit in the battery compartment?
