Review: Replaced YTZ5S - Even though I have ordered wrong battery according to chart (LTX5L is replacement for YTZ5L which is 20mm taller than YTZ5S) it fit perfectly into my Honda msx125 / grom. I found two spacers around 20mm thick inside the box, potentially to provide snug fit where YTZ5L battery is required but I've lucked out and it's straight swap for me. I love weight saving aspect (404g Vs 1578g) i love built in battery tester and I love that it start my engine after days of leaving bike abandoned in cold without smallest choke. 25/04/2024 For anyone interested, battery still working as intended Review: Good job done - Amazingly buy ## Features - No Maintenance - Very low self-discharge - Longer life - Waterproof - Easy-safe ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00KMSW4PY | | Battery Type | Lithium Ion | | Battery cell composition | Lithium Ion | | Best Sellers Rank | 182,482 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 324 in Motorbike Batteries | | Brand | SHIDO | | Brand Name | SHIDO | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Motorcycle | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 375 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05414837136286 | | Item Weight | 0.99 Pounds | | Item weight | 0.99 Pounds | | Manufacturer | DC AFAM NV | | Manufacturer Part Number | LTX5L-BS LION -S- | | Model Number | LTX5L-BS LION -S- | | Number Of Cells | 6 | | Number of Items | 1 | | OEM Equivalent Part Number | YTX5L-BS | | Size | L | | Terminal | Marine Terminal | | Vehicle service type | Motorcycle | | Voltage | 12 Volts | ## Product Details - **Battery cell composition:** Lithium Ion - **Brand:** SHIDO - **Item weight:** 0.99 Pounds - **Manufacturer:** DC AFAM NV - **Number of cells:** 6 - **OEM part number:** YTX5L-BS - **Size:** L - **Terminal:** Marine Terminal - **Vehicle service type:** Motorcycle - **Voltage:** 12 Volts ## Images ![SHIDO LTX5L-BS LION -S- Lithium Ion Motorcycle Battery 12V 20WH - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61HS5OW9ZPL.jpg) ![SHIDO LTX5L-BS LION -S- Lithium Ion Motorcycle Battery 12V 20WH - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51K+GSdPmYL.jpg) ![SHIDO LTX5L-BS LION -S- Lithium Ion Motorcycle Battery 12V 20WH - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/411uVDaK5XL.jpg) ![SHIDO LTX5L-BS LION -S- Lithium Ion Motorcycle Battery 12V 20WH - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Fi6wXE-gL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this fit Yamaha yzfr125 2016** A: Hi there, Unfortunately not.

I literally just goggled hayabusa battery as being the bank holiday no garages were open or had a battery. I didn't think it would even turn the bike over but replaced the rec and had no issues on the 80 or so mile ride home. Can't comment on much else other than how incredibly small and light it is vs a lead battery. The led feature with the charge level is nice. Can't comment on the quality but it does have 3 year warranty. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/51643828-shido-ltx5l-bs-lion-s-lithium-ion-motorcycle-battery-12v](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/51643828-shido-ltx5l-bs-lion-s-lithium-ion-motorcycle-battery-12v) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-11-04*
