This means that the battery contains no acid as delivered. It can be stored indefinitely when dry. It is only activated when the battery acid is filled in. "ADC" is used by some dealers as an abbreviation for "Acid Dry Charged" (acid pack included).Do I need to charge the battery before installation?Yes. After filling with acid, the battery should rest for at least 30–60 minutes ("outgassing"). For optimum service life and full starting power it is strongly recommended to fully charge it afterwards with a suitable motorcycle charger before installation in the vehicle.Will this battery fit my motorcycle if I have an acid sensor?The YB12A-A is the standard battery for many motorcycles of the 80s and 90s (e.g. Honda VF, VFR, CB models). Many of these batteries have the appropriate connection, or the ability to insert the original sensor of the motorcycle into one of the cells (often the middle cell, stopper is replaced by the sensor). Check before purchase whether your sensor connector is compatible.Where is the positive terminal?When you look at the battery from the front (the side with the terminals), the positive terminal is on the left and the negative terminal is on the right. The vent is usually also located on the left.

The Yuasa YTZ12S (in the "WC" version for "Wet Charged") is a high-performance premium class battery that offers maximum energy density. Although it is significantly flatter than a standard YTX12 battery, it delivers more starting power and capacity. With 11 Ah (10h) or 11.6 Ah (20h) and a strong cold start current of 210 A (EN), it is the powerhouse for modern touring motorcycles and adventure bikes which have plenty of space for electronics but little room for the battery. As it is factory-filled and sealed, it is ready for immediate use and extremely safe against leakage.Highlights at a glanceHigh Performance Power: Despite its more compact dimensions it delivers 210 A starting current, more energy than the larger standard battery YTX12-BS (180 A), ideal for modern fuel-injected engines.Factory Activated (WC): The battery is delivered from the factory filled, charged and hermetically sealed. It is "plug & play"-ready and requires no handling with acid packs.Compact height: With only 110 mm height it is 2 cm flatter than a standard 12-series battery, which allows designers to lower the centre of gravity of the motorcycle.Extended installation angle: As it is sealed at the factory and has no free acid chambers, installation at an angle (necessary for many modern sports and enduro bikes) is no problem.AGM technology: The electrolyte is completely bound in the glass fleece, which makes it extremely vibration-proof – perfect for touring enduros like the Yamaha Super Ténéré.Long service life: The special plate design of the YTZ series ensures very low self-discharge and high cycle stability.The standard for Honda NC & Yamaha TenereThe YTZ12S is a very frequently installed original equipment battery.

The YBX7110 is the EFB version (75Ah) for vehicles with start-stop. Although the YBX5110 has more nominal capacity, the YBX7110 is absolutely necessary if your car has a start-stop system, as it can handle the constant charging cycles much better.Why does the EFB have less capacity (75Ah) than the normal battery (85Ah)?This is due to the internal design. EFB batteries have thicker lead plates and special polyester fleece ("scrim") to increase cycle durability. This needs space in the housing, so for the same case size (LB4) the nominal capacity is often slightly lower. However, the usable energy and service life in start-stop operation is much higher.Can I fit a "normal" 80Ah AGM battery (L4)?No, mostly not. An L4 battery (e.g. AGM 80Ah) is 190 mm high. The YBX7110 is only 175 mm high. If your car (Ford/Opel) requires the flat version, you will often not be able to secure the holding bracket with the 190 mm high battery or the bonnet presses on the poles (risk of short circuit!).Do I need to register the battery?Yes. As it is a start-stop vehicle, a battery management system (BMS) is on board. After installation, the sensor should be reset (BMS reset) so that the vehicle knows a new battery has been installed.
