Motorcycle battery Exide EB12AL-A Moto Convencional 12Ah 165A 12V
The Exide EB12AL-A motorcycle battery is rated at 12 V, 12 Ah and 165 A of cold cranking current (EN) from the Moto Convencional range, and is designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. Its 135 × 80 × 160 mm and the positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 12 Ah battery fitted as standard to many motorcycles.
- 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.
What the Exide EB12AL-A is for
The Exide EB12AL-A 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 4.20 kg, M06 terminals and B0 hold-down.
Will it fit your current battery tray?
The Exide EB12AL-A is made in the 135 × 80 × 160 mm format and weighs 4.20 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 M06 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
The Exide EB12AL-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 EB12AL-A is the 12 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.
Conventional lead-acid is the benchmark against which other technologies are compared: good cranking current, great tolerance to alternator charging and the best price per amp-hour.
Exide: the maker behind the EB12AL-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. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.
Warranty and coverage
The Exide EB12AL-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.
Usage and maintenance tips
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.

Frequently asked questions
How is the Exide EB12AL-A 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 our blog. 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 — with positive on the right 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.
What is the service life of the EB12AL-A model?
Expected lifespan of the Exide EB12AL-A is 4 to 6 years in regular motorcycle use without 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 are the measurements of the EB12AL-A model?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 135×80×160 mm — also written as 135x80x160 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.
What polarity does the Exide EB12AL-A battery have?
Polarity: positive on the right. To identify it, place the battery in front of you with the terminals facing you and check which side the positive (+, marked with a red ring) is on. Before buying, verify the polarity matches your current battery: switching polarity forces longer cables or system reconfiguration, with short-circuit risk.
Will the Exide EB12AL-A battery fit my motorcycle?
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 EB12AL-A typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Exide EB12AL-A?
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.
