Yuasa 6N2-2A-1 Motorcycle Battery 6V 2.1Ah
Product is A1 fits as it should and holds charge. Must comment over the excellent customer service received. I received a failed battery previously which would not charge and had zero output, although Acid was present. Discussed with Tayna my problems and another replacement was sent express to me immediately. Many Thanks 5 stars.

Yuasa YTZ5S High Performance MF Motorcycle Battery
Thanks for the prompt delivery. When I saw it was being delivered by Royal Mail, I thought it would be dead by the time I got it. Battery bang on! Halfords told me that to get a delivery to a store near me would cost upto £80, because of the risk of explosion in transit. Next day brilliant and no bomb squad. 5* again

YB12AL-A AGM Powerline Motorcycle Battery 12V 12Ah YB12AL-A2
Dimensions and poles as stated, which was important to me as I’d not seen many that matched my bike’s wiring. Time will tell on the quality, but it was half the price of the gel battery I had in it before, so I worth a go.

What is a Motorcycle Battery?
A motorcycle battery is a small starter battery. Much like a car battery, it is designed to give a strong burst of power to start the engine. Once this is done the motorcycle battery is then recharged by the bike's charging system.
Different sized motorbike batteries are used depending on the size of the bike's engine and electrical loads. There are also three different types of motorcycle battery technology available. The original battery technology was the wet lead acid bike battery. This has free electrolyte in each cell and can spill if tipped on its side on upside down.
The latest Motorcycle battery technologies are the Absorbed Glass Matt (AGM) or the GEL battery. AGM bike batteries, also known as Absorptive Glass Micro-Fibre, have their electrolyte absorbed by a fibreglass mat. This keeps the electrolyte as a liquid inside the mat, making it readily available, so AGM batteries can be discharged and recharged more quickly than GEL batteries. Both Gel bike batteries and AGM motorcycle batteries are sealed and cannot be spilt if tipped over.
The latest technology in motorcycle batteries is the Lithium Bike Battery. Lithium cells are extremely lightweight, being approximately 65% lighter than the closest lead-acid equivalent. Shido offer a full range of Lithium Bike Batteries including some with Bluetooth compatibility.
Motorcycle Battery Information
The Motorcycle Battery is an essential part of every bike. Without it you couldn't start your motorcycle or power any of the electrical equipment. For these reasons it makes sense to purchase a good quality battery, and not be tempted by the cheapest offered by some retailers. We will not stock a motorcycle battery without rigorous testing to ensure we only deal in good quality, high performing bike batteries. We have an excellent reputation in the motorcycle industry, amongst everyday riders and enthusiasts, and endeavour to maintain this by supplying only the best and most reliable Motorcycle batteries available.
All motorcycle batteries are either 6 Volt bike batteries or 12 Volt bike batteries. Each motorcycle battery has an Amp-Hour (Ah) figure which is a measure of the battery's capacity, and a cold start figure measured in Amps (A), which is a measure the batteries power output. As a general rule the larger the motorbike battery the higher these figures will be. Higher performance AGM motorcycle batteries like the Westco Platinum Motorcycle Batteries and the Odyssey Bike Batteries can offer higher performance in smaller sizes. Motorcycles with larger engines, and high compression engines are harder to start, and therefore require motorcycle batteries with a higher cold start (A) performance figure. Motorbikes with a high demand on electrical equipment need batteries with a higher capacity (Ah) as this protects against deep discharge.
Whichever Motorcycle battery you choose, it is imperative that you look after the battery by using a Battery Charger/Conditioner regularly. This will keep the battery in optimum condition for a cold morning start, and prolong the battery's service life. This is especially important during the Winter months.
