My OEM battery is dead and won't take a charge.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a replacement battery?

looking at the battery it's a Yuasa YTX14-BS

Amazon prices range from $35-150 USD.

If your battery is original from 2013, it's given you fantastic service!
Whatever battery you decide on, I strongly recommend using a battery maintainer (e.g., Battery Tender) if at all possible-- particularly if the bike is stored someplace very cold or not used at least weekly.
 
My battery is the OEM n it still GOOD since 2016 knock on wood. I am the 2 nd owner of
the C650 GT cranks right up every time. 7 yrs old now the OEM battery is better. I did have
to put the bike on a battery tender when the tensioner was giving me a problem. That's
been taken care of n the 2 nd time was this past winter. It was COOLLLD here in Houston
about 20 n i had my bike in my work building n on the tender for 2 days

Mine also, Jaywm, left it over the whole winter without trying to start it or move it. Mine is also a Yuasa YTX14-BS. It must have been frozen...let me know what you went with. I think I'll go to a battery recyclers and get a fresh start. 🤔 Calgary, Alberta
