Motobatt Battery Quadflex AGM - MB16AU

Specifically designed for motorcycles, Motobatt batteries offer much higher cranking power and higher amp hour ratings. Their batteries can withstand constant starting without draining the battery or causing long-term cell damage. Their unique terminal design offers far greater versatility, allowing them to fit a wider range of applications which enables stockists to carry a narrower range of batteries for a large market, which makes it easier for retail customers to find a battery to fit their vehicle, in stock.

Motobatt batteries are manufactured from Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM), this design has revolutionised the motorcycle, ATV, lawnmower and small engine industry. QuadFlex provides a unique four-terminal design with two positives, two negatives along with height spacers that permit an almost universal fit. All Motobatt AGM Batteries are maintenance-free, non-hazardous, non-spill, charged and ready to install directly out of the box.

Each plate in the battery is wrapped in a fibrous glass matting which not only absorbs all liquid electrolytes but keeps the plates separated in a cushioned environment. This stops the plates from vibrating which can break down the plate and cause short circuits between the plates or break plate welds which results in battery failure. The thick, heavy plates used in Motobatt designs really make the difference.

AGM batteries also have a much lower inherent self-discharge rate than wet flooded types. And, as a higher amp hour AGM battery, the Motobatt battery can also discharge more deeply and recover repeatedly under the vehicle alternator charge or through maintenance charging. A standard flooded cell battery is not capable of withstanding this type of cycling without premature failure.

Your Motobatt is a Factory Activated battery, it comes to you pre-conditioned and fully charged for optimum performance and ready to install out of the box. 80% of early Powersports battery failure is caused by faulty activation of the dry battery plates. Additionally, you never have to mess with acid or top up fluid levels or remove corrosion from the terminals caused by gassing, which are all common with standard flooded battery types.

No initial charging is required — the battery is factory activated and arrives fully charged, so it can be fitted straight out of the box.
Check the case dimensions (207 x 72 x 164mm) and terminal positions against your battery tray before fitting; no height spacer is supplied with this model.
Use the QuadFlex posts that suit your loom, and fit the supplied terminal caps over any unused or exposed posts to guard against shorting.
Fit the supplied M6 terminal screws with the included 4mm Allen wrench and tighten firmly by hand — do not over-torque the posts.
Connect the positive lead first and the negative last when installing; reverse the order (negative off first) when removing the battery.
The battery is fully sealed and non-spill, so it can be mounted and transported in any position; never attempt to open the case or add fluid.
Keep the case and terminals clean and dry — wipe with a dry or lightly damp cloth and avoid solvents.
Use a charger with an AGM-compatible setting. Do not use a high-output or unregulated charger intended for flooded batteries.
For bikes stored over winter or ridden infrequently, connect a maintenance/trickle charger, or charge periodically — AGM self-discharges more slowly than flooded types but still needs topping up in storage.
Recharge promptly after a deep discharge rather than leaving the battery flat, and have the vehicle's charging system checked if the battery repeatedly goes flat.
Store spare batteries in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Dispose of the old battery through a battery recycling or collection point — do not place it in general waste.
