With **18.9 Ah** at **12 V** and **310 A** of cold cranking current (EN), the **Fulbat FTX20HL-BS** with GEL technology replaces the original battery of motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. Measuring 175 × 87 × 155 mm and the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for motorcycles fitted from the factory with a 18.9 Ah battery of this format.
- Holds its charge through winter storage.
- Compact and lightweight format.
- GEL: excellent resistance to deep discharge and long cycle life.
- Sealed and ready to fit, no acid handling.

### What the Fulbat FTX20HL-BS is for

The Fulbat FTX20HL-BS 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.

### Will it fit your current battery tray?

It has external dimensions of 175 × 87 × 155 mm. 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. 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 Fulbat does differently

French brand Fulbat is a European reference in motorcycle, garden and leisure batteries: compact ranges, clear JIS codes and a consistent quality that workshops know well. We guarantee that every Fulbat arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.

### Technology inside the Fulbat FTX20HL-BS

Within the Fulbat catalogue, the FTX20HL-BS is the 18.9 Ah model designed for this application.
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.

### Usage and maintenance tips

Avoid repeated cranking attempts on a cold bike for long: if it does not start on the third try, let the battery rest for a minute. GEL batteries need lower charging voltages: always use a charger with a GEL mode so as not to damage the electrolyte.

### Official warranty

The Fulbat FTX20HL-BS 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

### Is this battery GEL? What is the typical use?

Yes, this model is a GEL battery: sealed lead-acid where the electrolyte is in gel form. It tolerates deep discharges very well and is ideal for cyclic use (solar, motorhomes, electric wheelchairs, motorcycles). Requires a GEL-specific smart charger — max charge voltage ~14.1 V (vs 14.4-14.7 V for AGM). Lifespan 6-10 years.

### How should this motorcycle battery be charged?

With a 12 V motorcycle charger delivering at most 10 % of its capacity: 1.9 A for its 18.9 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 FTX20HL-BS GEL battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Fulbat FTX20HL-BS GEL is 4 to 6 years, keeping it charged when the bike is not in use. 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 FTX20HL-BS GEL model?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 175×87×155 mm — also written as 175x87x155 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 Fulbat FTX20HL-BS GEL 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.

### Is the FTX20HL-BS GEL valid for my vehicle?

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 FTX20HL-BS GEL typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.

### Which interchangeable batteries are there for this one?

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.
