The Fulbat FB16CL-B motorcycle battery is rated at 12 V, 20 Ah and 240 A of cold cranking current (EN), and is designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. Its 175 × 100 × 175 mm and the positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 20 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.
  • GEL: excellent resistance to deep discharge and long cycle life.

What the Fulbat FB16CL-B is for

Designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft, the Fulbat FB16CL-B replaces the original battery of bikes that use this code or format. Check the position of the positive terminal before ordering.

Will it fit your current battery tray?

In terms of format, the Fulbat FB16CL-B measures 175 × 100 × 175 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 FB16CL-B

The FB16CL-B 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.

In a GEL battery the electrolyte is gelled with silica: it is fully sealed, cannot spill and tolerates deep discharge very well. It is the preferred technology in electric mobility, marine service and heavy-cycling applications.

What Fulbat does differently

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. All the Fulbat batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

Warranty and coverage

The Fulbat FB16CL-B 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

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.

When you get it and how to return it

Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed before 6:00 pm: 1 to 2 working days in mainland Spain and 1 to 3 working days in mainland Portugal, 1 to 5 days in the islands and the rest of Europe. Returns are accepted for 14 days if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email.

Frequently asked questions

Is the FB16CL-B GEL model a gel battery? Where is it used?

Yes. The Fulbat FB16CL-B GEL is GEL: sealed lead-acid in which the electrolyte is a gel. Take care when charging: it requires a smart charger with a GEL mode, because it accepts a lower charge voltage than an AGM. Deep discharges are its strong point, so it suits cyclic use: solar, motorhomes, electric wheelchairs or motorcycles.

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?

No: being GEL, it is sealed and nothing needs topping up. Just keep it charged if the bike stands for a long time.

What is the service life of the FB16CL-B GEL model?

As a guide, you can expect the Fulbat FB16CL-B 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. What weighs most: temperature (cold makes starts harder and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte), frequent short trips, the condition of the alternator and charging system, power draw while parked and maintenance.

What are the dimensions of the Fulbat FB16CL-B GEL battery?

Length × width × height: 175x100x175 mm. Height is measured to the top of the terminals. Measure your motorcycle's battery tray first; if the battery exceeds it by even a millimetre, the hold-down clamp may not close.

On which side is the positive of the FB16CL-B GEL model?

On the Fulbat FB16CL-B GEL, the polarity is positive on the right. To check, stand the battery in front of you with the terminals nearest you: the positive (+) is the one with the red ring. A change of polarity from the original means longer cables or a reconfigured system and can cause a short circuit: check it before ordering.

Will the Fulbat FB16CL-B GEL battery fit my motorcycle?

Three routes: the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, with the vehicles verified by our technical team; your number plate in the finder, from which DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine; and WhatsApp, with make, model, engine and year, during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). If our table and the motorcycle handbook disagree, go with what the manufacturer says.

Which batteries are equivalent to the Fulbat FB16CL-B GEL?

The "Equivalents" section of this page gathers the recommended options with equivalent performance. A direct equivalent needs what this FB16CL-B GEL offers: 175×100×175 mm, positive on the right, the same Ah and CCA and GEL technology.
