The Motobatt MTX9A in practice
MTX9A vs Motobatt MTX7A
The Motobatt MTX9A offers 9 Ah and 140 A cold cranking in a 151 × 87 × 105 mm case. The Motobatt MTX7A, same brand and technology, stays at 7 Ah and 110 A and costs €113.55 less. If you hesitate between the two at a similar price, take this one: more capacity in the same size never hurts.
Motorcycle battery Motobatt YTX9BS Super GEL 9Ah 140A 12V
With 9 Ah at 12 V and 140 A of cold cranking current (EN), the Motobatt YTX9BS with GEL technology replaces the original battery of motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. Measuring 151 × 87 × 105 mm, it is the direct replacement for motorcycles fitted from the factory with a 9 Ah battery of this format.
- GEL: excellent resistance to deep discharge and long cycle life.
- Sealed and ready to fit, no acid handling.
- Holds its charge through winter storage.
- Compact and lightweight format.
What the Motobatt YTX9BS is for
With 9 Ah, the Motobatt YTX9BS covers the starting of motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. The JIS code on your current battery label is the safest way to confirm equivalence. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 3.18 kg.
The Motobatt YTX9BS: Super GEL range and GEL technology
The YTX9BS is part of the Motobatt Super GEL range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
A GEL battery is the choice when cycle resistance and safety matter most: no gases, no liquid and thousands of partial discharges in its lifetime.
Dimensions, polarity and mounting
In terms of format, the Motobatt YTX9BS measures 151 × 87 × 105 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 3.18 kg. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
Motobatt: the maker behind the YTX9BS
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. Check the resting voltage before the season (above 12.6 V on a charged battery) and make sure the terminals are clean and tight.
Official warranty
The Motobatt YTX9BS 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
Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed before 6:00 pm: 24-48 working hours in mainland Spain and Portugal, 3 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 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: 0.9 A for its 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 Motobatt YTX9BS battery last?
Expected lifespan of the Motobatt YTX9BS 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 dimensions of the Motobatt YTX9BS 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 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 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The YTX9BS typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Motobatt YTX9BS?
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.
Motobatt MTX9A or Fulbat FTX9-BS GEL: which one to choose?
It has the same dimensions, voltage and technology as the MTX9A, although it is not a manufacturer-approved equivalent. Compared with the MTX9A it has 1 Ah less and 5 A of cold cranking less. It costs 106,83 € less. Check the positive terminal side and the original capacity before ordering; otherwise it is a straight swap.
