Motorcycle batteries must endure persistent vibration, frequent cold starts, and the high electrical demands of modern bikes equipped with start-stop systems and advanced electronics. The Bosch S5A AGM FA106 is engineered specifically for these conditions, delivering 12V and 12Ah capacity with a cold cranking amp rating of 200A to ensure reliable engine starting in demanding environments.
Manufactured in Europe under Bosch's established production standards, the S5A range uses Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) technology in which the electrolyte is suspended within a fibreglass mat separator. This construction eliminates free acid, makes the battery fully sealed and maintenance-free, and provides superior resistance to vibration and deep discharge cycles. The factory-activated design means the battery is filled, charged, and ready for immediate installation on receipt.
The FA106 measures 150mm 87mm 145mm (L W H) and weighs 4.31kg. Polarity should be confirmed against the product label prior to installation. This unit cross-references to the widely used YTX14-BS and YTX14-4 fitment codes, making it compatible with a broad range of motorcycles, scooters, and off-road applications. Buyers should verify start-stop compatibility against the product label.
The Bosch S5A AGM range is available in multiple capacities. Related variants within this family include FA100, FA101, FA102, FA103, FA104, FA105, FA107, FA108, FA109, and FA110, covering a range of fitment requirements across the motorcycle and powersports segment.
This battery is supplied with a 1-year warranty, providing assurance of consistent performance and service life under normal operating conditions.
Standard delivery: 13 working days within UK mainland. 30-day returns.
