Varta 51913 Powersports SLI Freshpack 19Ah 100A 12V Motorcycle Battery
The Varta 51913 motorcycle battery (reference 519013017) is the 12 V, 19 Ah and 100 A cold cranking (EN) model from Varta's Powersports SLI Freshpack range, designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft. Measuring 186 × 82 × 171 mm and with the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for motorcycles fitted from the factory with a 19 Ah battery in this format.
- Performs well in the cold and after periods of inactivity.
- High cranking peak in a compact, lightweight format.
- Direct replacement for the original motorbike, scooter or quad battery.
- Construction built to withstand the vibration typical of two-wheelers.
Applications of the Varta 51913 battery
Designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft, the Varta 51913 is a direct replacement when you need its same 19 Ah capacity and format. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference weighs 6,66 kg and has a Y10 terminal.
Format and fitting of the Varta 51913
In terms of format, the Varta 51913 measures 186 × 82 × 171 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 6,66 kg. The positive terminal on the right determines which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes the most purchasing mistakes, so it is worth checking before ordering. For the replacement to be a direct fit, the space taken by your current battery must respect those three dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.
The Varta 51913 and the Powersports SLI Freshpack range
The Powersports SLI Freshpack range brings together Varta's conventional motorcycle batteries, supplied dry with the acid packed separately (freshpack) so they are activated on installation, guaranteeing maximum freshness.
They deliver powerful starting and good vibration resistance for classic motorbikes, scooters and quads: the direct replacement for traditional lead-acid motorcycle batteries.
On two wheels, vibration and extreme temperatures take a heavy toll on the battery. This range reinforces the internal plate mounting and seals the unit to withstand that use, delivering the instant burst of cranking power a motorbike or quad engine needs after weeks standing idle.
Why choose a Varta battery
Manufactured by Clarios to German standards, Varta is one of the world's benchmark brands in starter batteries and an OEM supplier to the leading car makers. Choosing it as a replacement guarantees specifications equal to or better than the originals.
Behind Varta is Clarios, one of the largest manufacturers of starter batteries in the world and a supplier to the assembly lines of numerous car brands. That German engineering heritage translates into reliable starting year after year.
Varta's production combines automated lines with verification of more than 100 parameters per unit; that traceability is what underpins its reputation for reliable starting throughout the battery's life.
Manufacturer's warranty
The Varta 51913 battery comes with the official manufacturer warranty.
Care and maintenance
If the bike goes unused for long spells, a trickle charger greatly extends the battery's life and prevents sulphation. Storing it somewhere dry and checking the terminals at the start of each season helps it start first time. Motorcycle batteries suffer in the cold and when left idle: in winter, a maintenance charger stops the battery from discharging completely. With this care, it will typically deliver well over several years of service.

Frequently asked questions
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 19 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?
Yes: it is a conventional lead-acid battery. Check the electrolyte level from time to time and, if it drops, top up with distilled water to the mark.
How long does the Varta 51913 battery last?
There is no exact figure: for a battery such as the Varta 51913 (conventional), a reasonable guide is 3 to 5 years, keeping it charged when the bike is not in use. What weighs most: temperature (cold makes starts harder and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte), frequent short trips, the condition of the alternator and charging system, power draw while parked and maintenance.
What size is this battery?
Measure your motorcycle's battery tray first; if the battery exceeds it by even a millimetre, the hold-down clamp may not close. Length × width × height: 186x82x171 mm. Height is measured to the top of the terminals.
On which side is the positive of the 51913 model?
It has the positive on the right (polarity). Put it in front of you, terminals towards you: the post with the red ring and the + sign is the positive. Compare it with the battery you are replacing: if it does not match, cables must be lengthened or the system reconfigured, with a risk of short circuit.
Is the 51913 valid for my vehicle?
Three routes: the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, with the vehicles verified by our technical team; your number plate in the finder, from which DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine; and WhatsApp, with make, model, engine and year, during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). If our table and the motorcycle handbook disagree, go with what the manufacturer says.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Varta 51913?
See the "Equivalents" section of this page for the recommended options at the same performance level. A battery interchangeable with the Varta 51913 must match it on dimensions (186×82×171 mm), polarity (positive on the right), capacity (19 Ah) and cranking current (100 A).
Varta 51913 or Varta GEL-19AH: which one to choose?
A technology step up in the same size: more cycles and better cranking than the 51913. Compared with the 51913 it has 70 A of cold cranking more. It costs 49,00 € less. Pays off if the bike sits for weeks or starts very often; for normal use the 51913 is enough.
Varta 51913 or Varta 51814: which one to choose?
It is the smaller sister of the 51913 in the same Varta range. Compared with the 51913 it has 1 Ah less. It costs 0,60 € less. Fine if your bike originally had that capacity; if it came with the 51913, do not go down.
