New this month is the SPS Lithium Ion Battery range.



These batteries may look like a standard one but  they are far lighter and have greater cranking amps than their acid equivalents.  These batteries are fitted to the new Ducati/Audi Penigale.

Unique casing design with spacers for exact height adjustment, cases are same size as the original battery that is being replaced. But the batteries are much lighter.  So you have an OEM fit when done as a like for like replacement but a staggering weight saving, see table below:



Battery chargers are being sourced at the moment, we want to make sure we get the right ones.

If you want a lightweight race only battery you need to be looking at our Mota-Lab range:



Mota-lab’s new Superlight batteries are a revolution in battery technology. Our Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries offer an average of 80% weight reduction when compared to traditional lead-acid batteries and have far greater starting power so your bike will start quicker and more consistently.

Our LFP batteries address the 4 major issues with current lithium batteries. 

1. Safety: No thermal runaway, no poisonous chemicals, no fire risk, this is the safest lithium battery on the market. Even safer than the lead-acid battery your machine came with stock.
2. Life: 2000+ charge/discharge cycles with a typical lifespan of 5 years. Since most motorcycles have a built in charging system the lifespan will greatly increase as the battery won’t go through a full charge/discharge cycle every time it is used, only a partial. 
3. Power: 150A from a single cell. 
4. Environment: No heavy metals, completely recyclable and ingredients safe enough to use as soil to grow plants. 

A Real Life Example: 
The Ducati 1098 comes standard with a Yuasa YTX14 battery, which weighs 8.06 lbs (3657.09 g) and produces 200 cold cranking amps (CCA). Our 8 cell battery weighs only 1.5 lbs (700 g) and has a 300 amp discharge (similar to CCA). Our batteries reduce weight by 6.56 lbs (2975.56 g) while increasing cranking power by 100 amps! Besides starting the Ducati 1098 easier and dropping a considerable amount of weight our batteries last several times as long as the original battery, require no maintenance (such as trickle charging) and includes a 2-year warranty! 

Construction Techniques: 
Our batteries are hand made in the USA at our lab in Los Angeles, CA. We weld the nickel battery tabs and oxygen free high strand count copper cables using a capacitive discharge (CD) dual pulse welder with pneumatic welding heads. We use only brand new, grade A, cells sourced directly from the manufacturer in the USA. Every aspect of the processes and materials involved in the construction of our batteries have been well thought out, tested and proven. The end result is a battery with superior materials and construction that we can stand behind with a 2-year warranty, which no manufacturer matches. We put our batteries through a multitude of tests three separate times during the build process to ensure we achieve the highest quality product possible. We test the cells prior to welding, after welding and after final assembly before being packaged and shipped. All our batteries get a final seal of approval on the package and warranty card included inside the package for the customer to verify their battery has meet our standards and is ready for use. 

4 Cell upto 600cc - £89.99

8 Cell 600 to 1000cc - £162.99

12 Cell 1000cc + & High Comp engines / Ducatis £244.99

If you have the new style battery which is a YTX9-BS you would need a LIPO09A.  If you have the older small battery then I'm sorry they don't do a replacement.  You'd have to by the Mota-Lab 8 Cell battery instead.
