The Fulbat FB16AL-A2 GEL in practice
FB16AL-A2 GEL vs Fulbat FTZ8V GEL
The Fulbat FB16AL-A2 GEL offers 16 Ah and 210 A cold cranking in a 205 × 70 × 162 mm case. The Fulbat FTZ8V GEL, same brand and technology, stays at 7 Ah and 120 A with 92 mm less length and costs €53.60 less. Coming from the smaller reference, this is a straight upgrade: same case, more reserve, same fitting.

- Same JIS code as the original battery: fits first time.
- GEL technology: gelled electrolyte, fully sealed and maintenance-free.
What the Fulbat FB16AL-A2 is for
The Fulbat FB16AL-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.
Dimensions, polarity and mounting
In terms of format, the Fulbat FB16AL-A2 measures 205 × 70 × 162 mm (length × width × height). 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. 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.
Technology inside the Fulbat FB16AL-A2
The FB16AL-A2 is one of the Fulbat references for this type of use; it shares the same manufacturing and quality-control criteria as the rest of the brand's catalogue.
GEL technology fixes the acid in a solid gel. That removes maintenance and leaks and gives very long cycle life, in exchange for slightly slower recharging and lower peak current than an AGM.
Why choose Fulbat batteries
Fulbat has manufactured in France since 1978 and specialises in motorcycles and light vehicles. Its catalogue is short and clear, covers almost the whole fleet and works only with sealed, leak-free batteries. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.
Official warranty
The Fulbat FB16AL-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.
How to make it last longer
GEL batteries need lower charging voltages: always use a charger with a GEL mode so as not to damage the electrolyte. Check the resting voltage before the season (above 12.6 V on a charged battery) and make sure the terminals are clean and tight.
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
Is the FB16AL-A2 GEL model a gel battery? Where is it used?
Yes, GEL technology (16.8 Ah): a sealed lead-acid battery whose electrolyte is in gel form. Designed for cyclic use (solar installations, motorhomes, electric wheelchairs, motorcycles), it tolerates deep discharges very well. It needs a GEL-specific smart charger: its maximum charge voltage is lower than that of an AGM.
How should this motorcycle battery be charged?
With a 12 V motorcycle charger delivering at most 10 % of its capacity: 1.7 A for its 16.8 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?
No: being GEL, it is sealed and nothing needs topping up. Just keep it charged if the bike stands for a long time.
How long does the Fulbat FB16AL-A2 GEL battery last?
As a guide, you can expect the Fulbat FB16AL-A2 GEL to last 4 to 6 years, keeping it charged when the bike is not in use, although the real figure may be higher or lower. 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 dimensions of the Fulbat FB16AL-A2 GEL battery?
Its dimensions are 205×70×162 mm, also written 205x70x162 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.
On which side is the positive of the FB16AL-A2 GEL model?
On the Fulbat FB16AL-A2 GEL, the polarity is positive on the right. 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). To check, stand the battery in front of you with the terminals nearest you: the positive (+) is the one with the red ring.
Is the FB16AL-A2 GEL valid for my vehicle?
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.
