- Same JIS code as the original battery: fits first time.
- Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
- Energetic cranking for high-compression engines.
- Resistant to the vibration typical of two wheels.

### What the Exide EB16AL-A2 is for

The Exide EB16AL-A2 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 5.20 kg, M02 terminals and B0 hold-down.

### Dimensions, polarity and mounting

In terms of format, the Exide EB16AL-A2 measures 205 × 70 × 165 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 5.20 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 M02 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.

### Exide: the maker behind the EB16AL-A2

With more than a century of history, Exide Technologies manufactures automotive, marine, motorcycle and industrial batteries in Europe. Its presence as original equipment on assembly lines vouches for the quality of every reference. All the Exide batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

### The Exide EB16AL-A2: Moto Convencional range and conventional lead-acid technology

The **Moto Convencional** is the Exide range the EB16AL-A2 belongs to: it shares the same construction and quality criteria with the rest of the series, and varies in capacity and format to suit each vehicle.
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.

### How to make it last longer

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

### Manufacturer's warranty

The Exide EB16AL-A2 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.

### Delivery times and returns

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: 1.6 A for its 16 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.

### What is the service life of the YB16AL-A1 model?

There is no exact figure: for a battery such as the Exide YB16AL-A1 (conventional), a reasonable guide is 3 to 5 years, keeping it charged when the bike is not in use. Actual lifespan varies with climate (cold starts, heat evaporating the electrolyte), with usage and short journeys, with the condition of the alternator and charging system, with power draw while parked and with maintenance.

### What are the measurements of the YB16AL-A1 model?

Its dimensions are 205×70×165 mm, also written 205x70x165 mm; the height already includes the terminals. Check the room available in your motorcycle, because a single millimetre too much can stop the clamp from closing.

### What polarity does the Exide YB16AL-A1 battery have?

It has the positive on the right (polarity). If your current battery has its positive on the other side, this one is not suitable without longer cables or a reconfigured system (short-circuit risk). Put it in front of you, terminals towards you: the post with the red ring and the + sign is the positive.

### Will the Exide YB16AL-A1 battery fit my motorcycle?

The quickest way is to enter your number plate in the finder: DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine. You can also look at the "Compatible vehicles" tab, verified by our technical team, or send us make, model, engine and year on WhatsApp; we answer during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). Always cross-check with what the motorcycle manufacturer states in the owner's handbook.

### What are the equivalents of the YB16AL-A1 model?

The "Equivalents" section further down lists the recommended alternatives. Interchangeable means the same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and same CCA; for the YB16AL-A1, 16 Ah (175 A cranking).

### Exide EB16AL-A2 or Motobatt MB16AU: which one to choose?

It is the verified Motobatt equivalent for the EB16AL-A2 tray. Compared with the EB16AL-A2 it has 4 Ah more and 55 A of cold cranking more. It costs 120,50 € more. Decide by price, brand preference and availability: both fit and crank the same.
