51913 Sealed AGM MF Battery

Xtreme Volts X51913 is a direct replacement for the Yuasa 51913 and BMW part number 61 21 2 346 800 batteries supplied with your vehicle.  The X51913 measures 7.44" wide x 3.25" deep x 6.875" high.  When viewing the battery with the terminals on the side of the battery closest to you the positive terminal is on the right side. It is a 12 volt battery, rated at 21 amp hours, and 300 Cold Cranking Amps as rated by the factory.

Drawbacks to the standard flooded cell 51913 Battery

The original factory supplied 51913, or 61 21 2 346 800 BMW battery utilizes a flooded cell type construction and incorporates a vent tube.  In sports bike applications the battery does not spend a lot of time in a vertical position.  Because the conventional flooded cell battery has a vent tube, the battery being at anything other than vertical may result in acid leaking from from the battery through the vent tube, and usually onto expensive bike parts.

Solve the problem of battery acid damaging onto your bike –

First, the Xtreme Volts X51913 is rated at 21 amp hours.  This is a 2 amp hour increase over the stock BMW supplied battery, giving you almost 10% more starting power.  The Xtreme Volts X51913 also carries a higher Cold Cranking Amp (CCA) factory rating.  The combination of the increase in CCA and amp hour rating aid in the reduction, or elimination of nusance Anti-Lock Brake Warning light signals. The Xtreme Volts version of the 51913 battery is produced using the newer Gel Cell style construction, which is much better suited for spots bike applications.  The Xtreme Volts version of the 51913 is constructed as a true factory sealed Gel Cell, maintenance free (MF), valve regulated lead acid battery (VRLA).   What does this means to the battery user? First, factory sealed means the battery comes with the acid already installed. The battery is permanently sealed, so there is no acid to handle.  Next, Gel Cell construction incorporates a geling agent in the acid.  This give the acid a jello like consistency when fully charged.  This eliminates free floating acid in the battery, and eliminates the chance of acid leaking from the battery even when the battery case is damaged.  The gel also acts a dampener, or cushion against shock and vibration, making this battery well suited for motorcycle applications, as well as rugged, pounding conditions as may be encountered with Yamaha snowmobile and ATV applications.  Third, it is maintenance free (MF).  There is no need to check or maintain fluid levels in the battery.  Finally, a valve regulated lead acid (VRLA) battery does not have a vent tube.  Vapors produced by the battery are re-circulated back into the battery.  This reduces corrosion around the battery, while also eliminating the venting of hazardous hydrogen gas under normal operating and charging conditions.  In addition, the absence of a vent tube means no acid leaking from the battery.
