Kawasaki FTZ16-BS Battery – 12V OEM Replacement (High-Capacity Powersports Battery)

The FTZ16-BS 12V battery is a high-performance, OEM-style replacement designed for a wide range of Kawasaki motorcycles, ATVs, and utility vehicles that require strong cranking power and increased electrical capacity. Built for larger displacement engines and accessory-equipped machines, this battery delivers reliable starting performance in demanding conditions.

Features

  • 12V high-capacity output (typically ~14–18Ah depending on manufacturer)
  • OEM-spec fitment for Kawasaki applications using FTZ16-BS battery size
  • Sealed AGM/VRLA design – maintenance-free and spill-proof
  • High cold cranking performance for larger engines
  • Durable, vibration-resistant construction for off-road and street use
  • Factory-style terminal configuration for easy installation

Kawasaki Fitment Applications

Commonly used across select Kawasaki models, including:
  • Larger displacement street and sport motorcycles
  • Vulcan® cruiser models
(Always verify exact fitment by model/year and OEM part number.)

Performance & Specs

FTZ16-BS batteries are known for their higher capacity and strong starting output, making them ideal for high-compression engines or vehicles with added electrical demands. Typical specs include:
  • Approx. 14–18Ah capacity
  • ~230 CCA starting power
  • Compact OEM battery case size (~150 × 87 × 161 mm)

Why It Matters

Kawasaki machines with larger engines or added accessories demand more from the battery. The FTZ16-BS provides the extra reserve capacity and cranking power needed to ensure reliable starts and consistent electrical performance—even in cold weather or under heavy load.
