The Exide E50-N18L-A from the Moto Convencional range is a motorcycle battery with 20 Ah and 260 A of cold cranking current (EN), designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. Its 205 × 90 × 165 mm and the positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 20 Ah battery fitted as standard to many motorcycles.

In short: the Exide E50-N18L-A (20 Ah, 260 A, 205 × 90 × 165 mm, positive terminal on the right). Verified equivalent alternatives: Varta SY50-N18L-AT and Varta Y50-N18L-A.

  • Compact and lightweight format.
  • Holds its charge through winter storage.
  • Sealed and ready to fit, no acid handling.
  • Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.

Will it fit your current battery tray?

In terms of format, the Exide E50-N18L-A measures 205 × 90 × 165 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 6.60 kg. The positive terminal on the right 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 M07 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. For a direct replacement, the current battery tray must accept these dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.

What the Exide E50-N18L-A is for

With 20 Ah, the Exide E50-N18L-A covers the starting of motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. The JIS code on your current battery label is the safest way to confirm equivalence. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 6.60 kg, M07 terminals and B0 hold-down.

The Exide E50-N18L-A: Moto Convencional range and conventional lead-acid technology

Within the Exide catalogue, the Moto Convencional series groups the references designed for this use. The E50-N18L-A is the 20 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.

In a conventional battery the electrolyte is liquid and the lead plates are immersed in it. It is a mature, economical and easily recycled technology, ideal for starting vehicles in normal use.

Exide: the maker behind the E50-N18L-A

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.

Official warranty

The Exide E50-N18L-A 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.

Care and maintenance

On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. If the bike spends the winter standing, connect a trickle charger: deep discharge through inactivity is the first cause of premature failure.

When you get it and how to return it

Orders placed before 6:00 pm with the battery in stock ship the same day. Delivery in mainland Spain and Portugal takes 24-48 working hours; for the Balearic Islands and the rest of the European Union allow 3 to 5 working days. You have 14 days to return an unused battery; in mainland Spain and Portugal collection is free. We email you the tracking number as soon as the parcel ships.

Frequently asked questions

How should this motorcycle battery be charged?

With a 12 V motorcycle charger delivering at most 10 % of its capacity: 2 A for its 20 Ah. High-current car chargers can damage it. If the bike is laid up for the winter, keep it on a maintenance charger.

Does it need maintenance?

Yes: it is a conventional lead-acid battery. Check the electrolyte level from time to time and, if it drops, top up with distilled water to the mark.

How long does the Exide Y50-N18L-A3 battery last?

As a rough estimate, the Exide Y50-N18L-A3 typically lasts 3 to 5 years, keeping it charged when the bike is not in use; it is a guide figure, not a guaranteed period. Many factors play a part: how it is used (lots of short trips, for example), temperature (cold makes every start harder and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte), the condition of the alternator and charging system, power drawn with the engine off and maintenance.

What are the measurements of the Y50-N18L-A3 model?

The Exide Y50-N18L-A3 takes up 205×90×165 mm (length, width and height, terminals included). Before buying, measure the space in your motorcycle: one extra millimetre can stop the hold-down clamp from closing.

What polarity does the Exide Y50-N18L-A3 battery have?

Polarity of the Exide Y50-N18L-A3: positive on the right. Seen from the front, terminals towards you, the positive (+) is the post with the red ring. Compare it with the battery you are replacing: if it does not match, cables must be lengthened or the system reconfigured, with a risk of short circuit.

Will the Exide Y50-N18L-A3 battery fit my motorcycle?

For your own vehicle: type your number plate into the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA identify model and engine), check the "Compatible vehicles" tab below, listing vehicles verified by our technical team, or message us on WhatsApp with make, model, engine and year; we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The motorcycle manufacturer's specifications always take priority over our tables.

Which batteries are equivalent to the Exide Y50-N18L-A3?

Interchangeable means the same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and same CCA; for the Y50-N18L-A3, 20 Ah (260 A cranking). The "Equivalents" section of this page gathers the recommended options with equivalent performance.
