Please note the following information now—it will save you the trouble of having to push-start your bike and other such unpleasant tasks later on: If you can’t find the right Louis Parts GEL battery for your vehicle right away, check under “My Bike” or “All Variants.” As a general rule, the correct battery type for your motorbike is specified by the manufacturer—so if you’re not entirely sure, a quick look in the owner’s manual or at the label on your old battery is usually all it takes.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

1) A battery type designation consists of several specifications that provide important information about the battery. These include, among other things, voltage, capacity, position and number of terminals, venting, cranking current, and much more. The first letter stands for the respective manufacturer.
For example, in “YTX9‑BBk,” the “Y” stands for Yuasa; in “DTX9‑BBk,” the “D” stands for Delo; and in “LTX9‑BBk,” the “L” stands for Louis Parts. Despite their different initial letters, all three battery types are technically identical and fit in the same vehicles.

2) Maintenance-free gel batteries are completely sealed. Although batteries of this type are shipped pre-charged, they must be fully charged before installation, using only special chargers designed for gel batteries.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before installation, please check that the battery fits in your vehicle (dimensions), that the terminals are in the correct position, and that the voltage (V) and capacity (Ah) are correct. Please read the package insert and the safety instructions it contains carefully.

GOOD TO KNOW:
Louis Parts GEL batteries can withstand an alternator charging voltage of up to 14.35 volts in the vehicle and can therefore often—but not always—be used as a replacement for standard or micro-fleece batteries. It’s best to use a voltmeter on your vehicle to check how many volts the voltage regulator or alternator is supplying to your battery when you press the throttle while idling. We’ve made every effort not to list any GEL batteries in the bike database for vehicles whose voltage output exceeds the limit of 14.35 volts.

For more information, please check our Documents section.

Warning: Never expose the starter battery to intense heat, such as direct sunlight, open flames, or similar sources. Do not use the battery in explosive environments or near flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Do not overcharge the battery, and use appropriate chargers. Keep the battery, as well as any small parts included in the package and the packaging film, out of the reach of children, as they pose a choking hazard. Never touch the terminals with metal objects, as this can cause an electric shock or a short circuit. Ensure that the positive and negative terminals are connected correctly. Do not operate the battery if it shows visible damage. Never open the casing, and do not make any modifications to the battery or its accessories. The electrolyte contained in the battery is corrosive.
