I got this sealed battery from Amazon back in 2020. I think I already know the answer, but wanted to ask anyway. It was working fine until I had an issue with the scooter and it sat for 6 months. The question is, do you think it will take a charge or should I just replace it.

just try; cheaper than a new one.

Put it on the charger and see in 24hrs.
If some life back it it, discharge somewhat and on the charger again.

Personally I would connect battery cables from the ex´s diesel (engine running) for a few minutes and thén (after disconnecting) put it on the charger
