- Holds its charge through winter storage.
- Compact and lightweight format.
What the Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S is for
Designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft, the Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S replaces the original battery of bikes that use this code or format. Check the position of the positive terminal before ordering. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 3.40 kg.
The Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S: Quadflex range and AGM technology
The Quadflex is the Motobatt range the YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S 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.
AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology seals the electrolyte in glass microfibre. The result is a maintenance-free battery that is highly vibration-resistant and able to withstand deep discharges that would ruin a classic lead-acid battery.
Dimensions, polarity and mounting
In terms of format, the Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S measures 151 × 87 × 105 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 3.40 kg. 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 Motobatt does differently
Motobatt batteries stand out for capacity and cranking current above the original battery in the same tray, thanks to a compact AGM design and the four-terminal Quadflex system. All the Motobatt batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
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. Charge with a charger that has an AGM mode: it limits the voltage and protects the glass-fibre separators.
Warranty and coverage
The Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S 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.
Shipping, delivery and returns
Order before 6:00 pm with stock available and it leaves today: mainland Spain and Portugal receive it in 24-48 working hours, the islands and the rest of the EU in 3 to 5 days. You have 14 days to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

Frequently asked questions
How is the Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S 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 — 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.
How long does the Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S battery last?
Expected lifespan of the Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S is 4 to 7 years in regular use (depends on technology and climate). 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 dimensions of the Motobatt YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S battery?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 151×87×105 mm — also written as 151x87x105 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.
Is the YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S 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 YTX9BS-YT12ABS-YTZ12S 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.
