BS Battery is expanding its SLA MAX line with five BGZ models using AGM technology. The new family is intended for large-displacement motorcycles with demanding electrical needs and numerous electronic components, placing the emphasis on starting power and battery performance under a heavier electrical load.

The main hardware feature is an integrated terminal with copper poles. BS Battery says this construction can raise conductivity by up to 50% compared with a standard terminal, while its maximum torque resistance is stated at up to 13 N·m. The batteries also use taller plates designed to improve starting power, a feature aimed at motorcycles requiring stronger starting performance.

The BGZ range is supplied ready for use and is described as maintenance-free and leak-free. Against the existing SLA line, BS Battery claims up to 20% greater starting power, service life and capacity. These are the manufacturer’s stated maximum figures; choosing the correct model will still depend on the requirements of the individual motorcycle.
