The 12 v batteries are much easier to find and a 12 v system is much better for starting in cold weather. 6 volt systems must use twice the current and are much more sensitive to resistance in cables and cable terminations. 6 volt systems have twice the voltage loss and half the voltage loss tolerance. So the problem is 4 times as bad percentage wise.
