Powersports applications demand a battery capable of withstanding vibration, repeated deep discharge, and the sustained current draws of modern electrical systems. The Varta Powersports AGM TX9-BS is engineered specifically for motorcycles, scooters, and quad bikes that require a compact, sealed, maintenance-free power source capable of delivering reliable cold cranking performance across a wide range of operating conditions.
Manufactured under the Varta Dynamic AGM product group, this battery uses Absorbent Glass Mat technology in which the electrolyte is suspended within a fibreglass separator. This construction eliminates free acid, prevents spill in any orientation, and provides the low internal resistance necessary to deliver a rated 135 CCA (EN) from a 12V, 8Ah cell. The AGM construction also supports start-stop functionality where the product label confirms compatibility.
The TX9-BS measures 152mm × 88mm – 106mm (L × W × H) and weighs 3.08 kg. It is supplied ready-filled and charged. Terminal placement follows Polarity 1 (positive terminal right), with a Y5 terminal type and B00 hold-down configuration. The direct cross-reference is TX9-4. This battery is classified within Varta Product Group 2185, VARTA POWERSPORT FUNSTART AGM." This battery is available across a range of capacities and case sizes within the Varta Powersports AGM series to suit alternative powersports applications.
