## Description

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

12*V* Voltage
8.6*Ah* Capacity
145*A* Cold cranking
3.40*kg* Weight

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.
- 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

Exide is one of the world's largest battery manufacturers and an original-equipment supplier to many car makers. Its European plants produce starter, industrial and leisure batteries under original-equipment quality controls. All the Exide batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

### 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.

### Shipping, delivery and returns

Order **before [[ks:cutoff]]** with stock available and it leaves today: mainland Spain and Portugal receive it in 24-48 working hours, the islands and the rest of the EU in 3 to 5 days. You have **[[ks:return_days]] days** to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the AGM12-8 model AGM? What does this technology offer?

Yes. The AGM12-8 from Exide uses AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology: a sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is absorbed in a glass-fibre mat. It withstands more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional one, handles heat better and is the required technology for motorcycles with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.

### How is the Exide AGM12-8 battery installed in the vehicle?

In most motorcycles it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on this page. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On motorcycles with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.

### How long does the Exide AGM12-8 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Exide AGM12-8 is 5 to 8 years in mild-climate motorcycle use with Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.

### What size is this battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 150×90×95 mm — also written as 150x90x95 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your motorcycle before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.

### Is the AGM12-8 valid for my vehicle?

Three options to confirm: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The AGM12-8 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.

### Which batteries are equivalent to the Exide AGM12-8?

Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop motorcycles. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
