Exide AGM12-8 · Motorcycle battery 12V 8.6Ah 145A AGM

Motorcycle battery Exide AGM12-8 Moto AGM 8.6Ah 145A 12V

With 8.6 Ah at 12 V and 145 A of cold cranking current (EN), the Exide AGM12-8 with AGM technology replaces the original battery of motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in motorcycles with a 150 × 87 × 95 mm format: same 8.6 Ah capacity and the positive terminal on the left.

In short: the Exide AGM12-8 (8 Ah, 145 A, 150 × 90 × 95 mm, positive terminal on the left). Verified equivalent alternatives: Exide ETZ10-BS and Varta YTX7A-BS.

• AGM technology: absorbed electrolyte, no spills, can be mounted at an angle.
• Same JIS code as the original battery: fits first time.
• Resistant to the vibration typical of two wheels.
• Energetic cranking for high-compression engines.

What the Exide AGM12-8 is for

The Exide AGM12-8 is a common replacement in motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. If your bike spends the winter standing, a trickle charger stops it reaching spring flat. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 3.40 kg, M12 terminals and B0 hold-down.

Size, terminals and hold-down of the Exide AGM12-8

It has external dimensions of 150 × 87 × 95 mm and weighs 3.40 kg. The positive terminal on the left decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. It uses a B0 hold-down and M12 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.

The Exide AGM12-8: Moto AGM range and AGM technology

The AGM12-8 is part of the Exide Moto AGM range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.

AGM means the acid is held in a glass mat instead of floating free. That is why the battery can be installed in the cabin without gases, survives more cycles and recovers its charge quickly.

Why choose Exide batteries

Warranty and coverage

The Exide AGM12-8 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty. The warranty does not cover discharge through prolonged inactivity: if the bike stands for months, use a trickle charger.

Usage and maintenance tips

Check the resting voltage before the season (above 12.6 V on a charged battery) and make sure the terminals are clean and tight. If the bike spends the winter standing, connect a trickle charger: deep discharge through inactivity is the first cause of premature failure.
