Applications of the Varta YB30L-B battery

Designed for motorcycles, scooters, quads and personal watercraft, the Varta YB30L-B is a direct replacement when you need its same 30 Ah capacity and format. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference weighs 6,5 kg and has a Y5 terminal.

Format and fitting of the Varta YB30L-B

The Varta YB30L-B is made in the 186 × 130 × 171 mm format and weighs 6,5 kg. The positive terminal on the left 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. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal positions before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.

The Varta YB30L-B 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.

Unlike a car battery, what matters here is power density in a minimal size and resistance to vibration. It is the direct substitute for the original motorcycle battery, with the advantage of reliable starting even in the cold and after periods of inactivity.

Why choose a Varta battery

When a workshop recommends Varta it is not down to marketing: it is one of the brands with the lowest return rates in the sector, with an application coverage that spans practically the whole European fleet, from the city car to the commercial vehicle.

Varta batteries are made under the Clarios group with German technology and quality controls that make them one of the best-selling choices in Europe. As a lead battery, it is 100% recyclable through any collection point.

More than 100 manufacturing parameters are checked on every Varta battery before it leaves the plant, a level of rigour that explains why so many workshops and manufacturers trust the brand as their first-choice replacement.

Manufacturer's warranty

The Varta YB30L-B 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.
