## Description

## Motorcycle battery Odyssey ODS-AGM16L ODS 16Ah 170A

16*Ah* Capacity
170*A* Cold cranking
7*kg* Weight

The **Odyssey ODS-AGM16L** from the **ODS** range is a motorcycle battery with **16 Ah** and **170 A** of cold cranking current (EN), designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. Measuring 183 × 76 × 163 mm and the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for motorcycles fitted from the factory with a 16 Ah battery of this format.
- AGM: faster recharging and better cycle resistance than a conventional battery.
- Sealed and ready to fit, no acid handling.
- Holds its charge through winter storage.
- Compact and lightweight format.

### Dimensions, polarity and mounting

The Odyssey ODS-AGM16L is made in the 183 × 76 × 163 mm format and weighs 7 kg. 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. It uses M6 Receptacle terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. 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 the Odyssey ODS-AGM16L is for

With 16 Ah, the Odyssey ODS-AGM16L 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 7 kg and M6 Receptacle terminals.

### The Odyssey ODS-AGM16L: ODS range and AGM technology

The ODS-AGM16L is part of the Odyssey **ODS** range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
In an AGM battery the electrolyte is absorbed in glass-fibre separators: there is no free liquid, it cannot spill and it can be mounted at an angle. That construction lowers internal resistance, speeds up recharging and multiplies cycle life compared with a conventional battery.

### Odyssey: the maker behind the ODS-AGM16L

Odyssey batteries combine starting and deep cycling in a single sealed pure-lead unit, with some of the longest warranties on the market. All the Odyssey batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

### Official warranty

The Odyssey ODS-AGM16L 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

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.

### 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

### Is the Odyssey ODS-AGM16L an AGM battery and what are the benefits of AGM?

Yes. The ODS-AGM16L from Odyssey uses AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology: a sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is absorbed in a glass-fibre mat. It withstands more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional one, handles heat better and is the required technology for motorcycles with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.

### How should this motorcycle battery be charged?

With a 12 V motorcycle charger delivering at most 10 % of its capacity: 1.6 A for its 16 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 AGM, 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 ODS-AGM16L model?

Expected lifespan of the Odyssey ODS-AGM16L 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 Odyssey ODS-AGM16L battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 183×76×163 mm — also written as 183x76x163 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.

### On which side is the positive of the ODS-AGM16L model?

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 ODS-AGM16L 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 ODS-AGM16L typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.

### Which batteries are equivalent to the Odyssey ODS-AGM16L?

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.
