Yuasa YTX12 Sealed Lead Acid Battery 10.5 Ah 12 V 180 A Motorcycle

The Yuasa YTX12 Sealed Lead Acid Battery is a 12 V, 10.5 Ah VRLA battery engineered to provide reliable starting power for motorcycles and similar small vehicles. With a peak current rating of 180 A, this compact battery delivers the high-cranking performance required for regular starting cycles. Its sealed, valve-regulated design means maintenance-free operation and safe placement in upright or tilted positions common to motorcycle mounting configurations. The battery's physical dimensions are 150 mm width, 87 mm depth and 130 mm height, making it suitable for many standard motorcycle battery compartments.

Advantages

The sealed lead acid construction ensures minimal maintenance and reduces the risk of acid leakage compared to flooded batteries. A peak current of 180 A supports dependable engine starts even in varied ambient temperatures. Its compact form factor and stable terminal layout simplify installation and replacement in constrained spaces. Manufactured to consistent quality standards, the battery offers predictable electrical output and a robust casing to withstand typical vibration and handling on motorcycles.

How to use

Install the Yuasa YTX12 in the vehicle battery compartment following the motorcycle manufacturer's specified polarity and terminal orientation. Ensure the battery terminals are clean and securely connected with appropriate clamps. Charge the battery with a charger compatible with sealed lead acid batteries if initial charging or maintenance charging is required; follow the charger manufacturer's instructions for suitable charging current and voltage. Avoid overcharging and disconnect the charger when the battery reaches full charge. For long-term storage, maintain a periodic charging schedule to prevent deep discharge.

Usage recommendations

For longest service life, use a charger designed for sealed lead acid batteries and avoid deep discharges. Verify terminal polarity before installation and secure the battery in a vibration-minimizing mount. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when not in use and perform periodic top-up charging during extended storage.
