Motorcycle batteries must endure sustained vibration, frequent cold starts, and the electrical demands of modern ancillaries conditions that degrade conventional lead-acid cells rapidly. The Bosch S5A AGM FA115 is engineered specifically for these challenges, delivering a sealed, maintenance-free power source for motorcycles, scooters, and off-road applications where reliability is non-negotiable.
Manufactured in Europe under Bosch's AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) process, the battery arrives factory activated: filled with electrolyte, fully charged, and ready for immediate fitment. The AGM construction immobilises the electrolyte within glass-fibre separators, eliminating acid stratification and providing inherent resistance to vibration-induced plate damage. This technology also supports start-stop functionality where the vehicle manufacturer specifies AGM always verify compatibility against the product label before installation." The FA115 operates at 12V with a rated capacity of 12Ah (C20) and a cold cranking amperage of 125A (EN). Physical dimensions are 134mm (L) 81mm (W) 160mm (H including terminal). Weight is 3.88kg. Polarity orientation must be confirmed against the product label prior to installation. Cross-reference codes for this unit are YB12A-A and 12N12A-4A-1. "This battery is part of the Bosch S5A AGM motorcycle range. Related variants within the FA series include FA100, FA101, FA102, FA103, FA104, FA105, FA106, FA107, FA108, and FA109, covering a broad spread of motorcycle fitments. Alternative motorcycle batteries are also available in the ET series, including ETX12-BS and ETX14AH-BS.
The FA115 is supplied with a 1-year warranty, covering manufacturing defects under normal operating conditions. Retain proof of purchase for any warranty claim.
