It ships as a bottle-supplied (BS) dry battery so you activate it with the included acid when you’re ready. The small footprint and 9.2 lb filled weight make it suitable for many motorcycles, ATVs, and powersport vehicles that require a vehicle-specific fit type and dependable starting power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this battery deliver reliable starts in cold conditions?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe YTX12-BS produces 180 cold cranking amps (CCA) measured at 0 °F (-18 °C), which means it can deliver the quick bursts of current needed to crank small engines reliably in lower temperatures.
