The Century EverRide YTX14-BS is a 12V 12Ah AGM motorcycle battery that cranks mid-sports bikes, standards and lighter cruisers at 180 cold-cranking amps. It fits Honda VLX600 Shadow and Shadow 750, Kawasaki Ninja 600 and Vulcan 500, Yamaha YZF-R6 and FZ6, Suzuki GSX-R600 and 750, Triumph Daytona and Speed Triple and other builds that call for the YTX14-BS case with Terminal Type A clamp posts.

The case measures 150 by 87 by 145mm and weighs 4.31kg. Lead-calcium cast grid plates pack 12Ah into that footprint and cut gassing and self-discharge compared with older antimony plates. AGM VRLA construction seals the acid between glass mats, so there is no spill and the battery mounts up to 30°. Terminal Type A posts sit on the standard motorcycle layout.

Ships dry-charged with a sealed acid pack. Fill, let the battery rest, then heat-seal the lid before first fit, following the Century EverRide user manual. Charge on a dedicated AGM-profile charger (Century's CC6121.2 is the matched unit). A straight automotive charger will boil off the electrolyte and shorten the life.

  • 180 CCA — spins mid-sports and standard bikes
  • AGM VRLA sealed — mounts up to 30°, no spill
  • Lead-calcium grid — low self-discharge, low gassing
  • Dry-charged — ships with sealed acid pack for shelf life
  • Vibration-resistant — passes 7G sustained vibration testing
  • Terminal Type A — standard motorcycle clamp posts

Q: What does AGM actually mean?
Absorbed Glass Mat. Fibre-glass mats hold the electrolyte between the plates so nothing sloshes and nothing spills. Sealed, vibration-tolerant, mounts up to 30°.

Q: What does CCA actually mean?
Cold Cranking Amps — the current the battery delivers for 30 seconds at -18°C while holding a usable voltage. 180A clears mid-sports and standard bikes.

Q: What does Ah actually mean?
Amp-hours — the capacity between full charge and flat. 12Ah covers an average sports or standard bike's accessory load.

Q: Does it ship ready to install?
No — ships dry-charged with a sealed acid pack. Fill the cells with the supplied acid, let it rest about an hour, then heat-seal the lid before fitting. The user manual steps through it. Dry-charged shelf life is longer than factory-activated.

Q: What's the difference between YTX14-BS and YTX14H-BS?
CCA rating. YTX14-BS is 180CCA; YTX14H-BS is a higher-performance 200CCA variant in the same case family. Different Yuasa chart recommendations — match the bike's existing part number.

Q: What's the difference between YTX14-BS and YTX12-BS?
Capacity and case height. YTX14-BS is 12Ah in a 145mm-tall case; YTX12-BS is 11Ah in a shorter 130mm case. Match the dimensions and part number to the bike's existing battery.

Q: Can I mount it sideways?
Up to 30°. VRLA sealed, no spill at that angle. Not for inverted install.

Q: What charger does it need?
An AGM-profile charger with a float stage. Century's CC6121.2 is the matched unit. A bulk-only automotive charger overcharges and boils off the electrolyte.

Q: How long will it last?
AGM motorcycle batteries typically run 3-5 years. A tender over winter and a monthly top-up charge add years — short rides and long storage shorten life fastest.
