Product Description
Never Struggle with a Dead Motorcycle Battery Again
Wrestling a heavy, dead battery out of your bike after winter storage is a major hassle. The Shorai lithium-iron powersport battery solves this problem completely by holding its charge for up to a full year without maintenance. Weighing under 1 pound, this ultra-lightweight power source makes installation effortless and significantly lightens your ride.
This drop-in replacement is highly popular for trail and track bikes, providing crisp, immediate starts for models like the:
- Honda CRF230F
- Yamaha TTR230
- Kawasaki KLX110
- KTM 350 SX-F
To keep your investment in peak condition during the off-season, we highly recommend pairing it with the Battery Tender Jr. 800 charger (part number 022-0199-DL-WH). Upgrade your ride today and enjoy reliable, turn-key starting power on every single trip!
What's the difference between the "equivalent" and "Actual" amp hour capacity?
The manufacturer includes the "equivalent" (PbEq, "lead equivalent") rating to show a more apples-to-apples comparison between the lithium chemistry and the lead-acid battery that you're likely replacing.
The lead-acid capacity rating itself is based on a complete discharge at a low discharge rate. Under actual cranking conditions they will deliver considerably less than spec capacity. And because lead-acid batteries begin sulfating when only a small percentage of the capacity has been used, and their internal resistance rises as they are discharged, the actual capacity which can be used may be as little as 20% of the mfg. rating. Discharge in excess will not only damage the lead-acid battery, it may not allow proper starting as voltage sags.
For example, the Shorai LFM18 12V series have 6Ah cells internally. But, the cells are capable of 80% discharge without damage while still retaining more cranking power. As such, the usable capacity (or "reserve capacity") of an LFM18 12V battery is very close to 18Ah-rated lead acid batteries, while also providing superior cranking and huge weight reductions.
Cold Weather Performance Expectations
Down to about 20° Fahrenheit (-7°C) most users find that they can start normally on first crank. If your headlight comes on at key-ON, it is good for the batteries to flow some current before cranking in cold weather. The suggested headlight-on time before cranking depends on the temperature. If starting at 40°F/5°C, 30 seconds will help wake the battery and increase cranking performance. If at 0°F/-17°C, leave the lights on for 4~5 minutes before cranking. The result will be a better first crank, and longer battery life. If the engine fails to start on first crank, that first crank has warmed the battery, and the second attempt will be much stronger. Other accessories that can be turned on before cranking can also be used for this purpose, such as heated gear, radio, etc... Insuring that the battery is fully charged after storage also improves first-start performance in cold weather.
Warranty Terms
Shorai offers a Limited, Pro-Rated Five-Year Warranty for Shorai batteries, for defects in material and/or workmanship, pertaining to sales originating and delivered within the United States.
The warranty is divided into three periods from date of purchase within the USA, as follows:
All warranty claims for products purchased and delivered within the United States are handled directly by Shorai Service LLC. only. Battery Mart can only provide information for getting in contact with Shorai for warranty claims. See the Warranty Form for online submission of warranty claims, and to get your Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA#) assignment. Replacement batteries are to be issued by Shorai and sent directly to the customer. No dealership is authorized to issue a replacement battery without prior written authorization from Shorai.
Please do NOT return any product to Shorai without an RMA# or before Shorai has contacted you. In many cases issues can be solved prior to return.
Conditions which will void warranty
- Opening the battery case will void the warranty.
- Applications Not listed on the Shorai website product finder such as: Aircraft, Automotive, Go Karts, Motive power (Shorai as main power source, not engine starter).
- Over-voltage charging, or other error by charger or user setting of charger.
- Use in excess of cranking (CCA) specifications (incorrect use in custom vehicle, etc).
- Short circuit of main terminals or BMS port.
- Short circuit caused by improper installation.
- Improper connections to the 5-pin BMS port.
- Over-discharge (i.e. resting voltage allowed to fall below 12.8V/6.4V for Lfx 12V/6V types).
- Physical Damage to the battery occurring after purchase (impact, etc).
For custom vehicles if you have a stock motor pulled from another vehicle, then you can use our battery finder to select the battery that the motor came from as long as the starter gearing is the same. If you have any other questions, please give us a call and we will assist you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between this model and the old LFX07L2-BS12?
A: The new LFM07L2-BS12 features a built-in Battery Management System that actively balances internal cells for longer life, directly replacing the discontinued LFX07L2-BS12 model with identical dimensions.
Can I use my standard lead-acid battery charger on this lithium battery?
A: Yes, provided your charger does not have an automatic desulfation or reconditioning mode, though we highly recommend using the Battery Tender Jr. 800 for optimal performance.
How do I make sure this smaller battery fits securely in my factory box?
A: Every package includes adhesive-backed, high-density foam spacers that you can easily trim to fill any extra space and create a tight fit.
Does this powersport battery require any initial maintenance or fluid additions?
A: No, this unit is completely sealed and maintenance-free, though you should fully charge it before your first installation to ensure maximum performance.

Customer Reviews
Great service!
Replaced factory KTM battery with this unit. It is a couple pounds lighter & and cranks faster. Stays charged much better when not riding, without use of a battery tender.
Awesome battery, even came with sticky foam to pack out battery box for perfect fit. So light it wont bounce around. Thanks
much lighter than stock battery
Very happy with this purchase. The fact that it comes with plenty of customizing foam was very helpful. I'm quite happy with the performance so far. We'll see how it handles the colder weather this fall.
Light weight perfect fit for my application . Just bolt up strap in and ready to go . It's that easy .
