The choice of a new battery for your motorcycle is very important. Your first thing to do is to check your old battery a jot down any part numbers and letters that may be on there. A good example of a typical battery size would be LYTX14BS.
This is the information that you should give when ordering your new battery. Most leading battery manufacturers have very good fitting catalogues, but the best way to be sure of an exact match is to read the information on your old battery.
Lucas batteries have an online catalogue and most motor-cycles are included giving the correct battery size, there is also a PDF catalogue on the batteriesontheweb internet website.
If you are buying a battery from your local battery dealer, you would be best advised to take your old battery with you and have it matched up correctly, but if you are buying your batteries online, it is recommended that you only buy a battery with the same numbers as your old battery, or contact the battery company by phone, most good battery dealers will be all too willing to offer any help or advice.
If you do buy your motorcycle battery online it will arrive in two parts the battery and an acid pack. Acid has to be poured into the battery from the pack. This method has to be used for safe transportation, some batteries are made of GEL, or AGM, with these batteries all you do is fit the battery onto your bike, as they are completely sealed, safe and ready to go.
