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.

How to change the battery
Guide to replace your motorcycle battery in 10-15 minutes. Motorcycle batteries are light (2-5 kg) and usually need an 8 mm wrench.
Step 1. Prepare the vehicle
Park on a flat surface, switch off the engine and remove the key. Make sure all lights and electrical accessories are off. Wait 1-2 minutes before starting.
Step 2. Locate the battery compartment
On motorcycles it is usually under the seat, in the rear cowl or behind a side panel. Check the manual — access varies a lot between models.
Step 3. Disconnect the negative (−) terminal
Use the 10 mm wrench to loosen the negative cable nut (black, marked −) and remove the cable from the post. Move it aside so it cannot touch any bodywork.
Step 4. Disconnect the positive (+) terminal
Repeat with the positive cable (red, marked +). Important: never let a terminal touch metal of the car while the other is still connected.
Step 5. Remove the old battery
Loosen the hold-down clamp or the straps that secure it. Lift the battery carefully — typical weight 2-5 kg. Check the terminals are not corroded before fitting the new one.
Step 6. Install the new battery
Place the battery in the same orientation as the old one (positive terminal on the same side). Tighten the hold-down clamp firmly.
Step 7. Connect the cables
Connect the positive (+) terminal first, then the negative (−). Tighten the nuts with the wrench until each terminal does not move. Apply anti-spark grease if you have any.
Step 8. Verify the engine starts
Close the bonnet. Start the engine to confirm everything works. On cars with Start-Stop or a BMS, you may need to register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.
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 do I fit the YTX9BS model in my motorcycle?
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 this page. 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 battery last?
Expected lifespan of the Motobatt YTX9BS is 6 to 10 years in cyclic use (marine, caravan, solar) with controlled discharges. 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 16:40–18:00 (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.
