Reviews of YTX12-BS Numax Motorbike Battery

Ordered a Numax YTX12_BS battery to replace current failing unit. It's a Liquifil or fresh-pack battery. This means that they are filled by the customer rather than in the factory, this means that the battery is not activated until you fill it. Advice from Tayna was fill the battery, allow to stand for a an hour or two. During this time the acid will be absorbed in to the glass matting in the battery, and your battery will then become the AGM/GEL type. Followed their instructions, swapped it in . Early days but bike has started first time without issue since - 4/5 star service so far from Tayna team, need to see how well the battery functions for final score. However delivery took 48hours from order at 11:00 07/03 arrived 14:09 09/03 so wouldn't rely on advertised overnight delivery.

Prompt delivery during bad weather. Acid filling was a bit awkward but after charge battery works fine.

Very efficient service. Web site easy to use, prices competitive and quick delivery. Only loses a star as product packaging is messy to deal with and not environmentally friendly. Some sort of recycled cardboard packaging would be better rather than expanded polystyrene foam. Saying that, perhaps Tayna uses the same packaging as they receive from the supplier, therefore passing it on to the end user.

so far absolutely no complaint well constructed easy to fit, easy to fill with acid.. so no complaints, I hold my fingers crossed that it will last two plus years. my original bike battery Yuassa? lasted 5 years so fingers crossed. I have a optimiser fitted to it as my bike has systems that will drain the battery when sat alone.

very happy, dispatched within 24hrs, arrived next day well wrapped, with all the acids and instructions. filled battery with acid and it read 23 volts, so let it settle for 24 hours, next day it showed 13.14 volts, put charger on it, 3-4hours later charger stopped charging, and went into maintain mode. put on bike zr750 and 5 seconds she's running!, after 17 years standing. (I did change the oils, petrol, clean the carbs) I have had these batteries in the past with no problems.
