CB CHROMEBATTERY YB16CL-BS Maintenance-Free, 240CCA, 12V 19Ah Battery Replacement for BRP SEA-DOO Jet Skis, and More - Nut and Bolt (T3) Terminal

Kawasaki ninja 500 2024So far, so good I left my bike sitting for three months. I went to go turn it over and the battery won’t start every time I would jump it. It would stay on for a little bit, but once I popped into first it stalled out so I started looking for other batteries thinking that that was the problem as soon as I connected my battery, my LEDs lit up and knew that was a good sign. My bike started with no problems, no sign of a lack of power to my bike and stayed steady all the way throughout I was hesitant on buying something so cheap but it seems to do the job great

Item arrived on time. Almost had full charge. The description says 20Ah and picture shows 18Ah, that was a confusion. It’s 18 Ah indeed ( confirmed with customer care). The only thing lacking was the new hardware, had to visit Home Depot since I don’t want to use the old ones. Will update incase of any problems.

If you need a battery for your sportsman 700 and don't want to spend 200$ for one this is perfect for you. Works great

I imagine that like most of you reading this review, I'm looking for a less expensive alternative to the name-brand batteries, and understanding you might be giving up some strengths for cost, yet still hoping for long term service.It was well packaged in it's own Chrome box, which was inserted in an Amazon box. The battery was enclosed in a plastic ziplock style bag. It was seated and topped in styrofoam and there weren't any signs of leaks or damage.The battery itself only has the Chrome brand info sticker on it. Other than the brand sticker there aren't any safety stickers, CCA stickers etc. Basically nothing that I would think would/should be a requirement, at least for future reference when it's time to replace it. The battery's encasement is smooth plastic that feels rather thin, though I can't confirm what's behind the plastic. The terminals are metal tabs, not lead or zinc. None of this means the battery is less quality, only more inexpensively built which may or may not affect it's life. Only time will tell.The battery tested at 12.83 volts out of the box, but since it was late in the day I put it on a battery tender overnight. The next morning it registered 13.12 volts. I then put a battery tester on it and it passed everything, no problems.Installation into my 2014 Kawasaki Nomad was relatively simple. It fit into the battery box perfectly. The battery came with it's own bolts and nuts. The nuts provided are thick, making it easier to insert the bolts through the battery cable and into the terminal. There's a convenient "stop" that will prevent the nut from sliding too far under the terminal but there isn't one to keep it in from the outside, so you have to be careful not to tilt the battery until you get the bolt inserted or the nut will slide out. Some double-sided tape will hold them in place. My bike turned over and started quickly and there have been no problems starting it since after several rides with start-stop sequences.So here's my initial impression: It's a battery that works great right now. Not unexpected is that it doesn't feel as high a quality as the two name brands that preceded it. (My OEM lasted 5-1/2 years and it's name-brand replacement was another 5 years.) But then, it's about half the cost and cost-cutting is to be expected in some areas. The 18 month warranty and having a US based provider is definitely a plus, but only if they stand behind their product should a problem develop. (The battery says it was made in Thailand.) The Texas heat in next year's summer will be the true test. I ride a lot of miles and use a battery tender if I anticipate that I won't using the bike for awhile, meaning the battery won't be sitting for long periods discharging.Right now I'm giving it 4 stars, deducting for the lack of sticker information on the battery itself and for the seemingly obvious areas they cut back on. I'll try to remember to give updates which may cause my rating to go up or down. As of right now, I'm very pleased.

Im very satisfied with the battery, the last one exactly like this one lasted 8 years.

Works great out of the box. Still working good after a few months. Great value for the money.

Was in need of a new battery for my CBR. Battery was a great replacement. Some have said they had issues with getting nuts started, just have to get them lined up. Had old battery out and new one installed in less than 10 minutes. So far so good with this battery, will see how it holds up.

I have a 2010 Streetglide that I keep in the garage on a battery tender. Initially, the battery worked great, but now that winter is over and id like to go ride again, the battery is dead despite being maintained on a tender.I've reached out to the seller through email. If they replace my battery under the warranty that they promise of 18 months, I will change this review.UPDATE: I reached out to them over email and had a response in like 25 minutes. They did have me pay for shipping, but they honored the warranty which is all that i can ask for really. Ill update one more time once the battery arrives.Update 2: They sent the new battery and it works as desired. They honored their warranty and thats more than most companies now adays. Id buy again.
