Honda CBR500R Battery

2013–2020. Honda changed the CBR500R's battery once across the run. Pick your year and we show the case that year takes and the lithium that fits it. Change any box in the strip to look up another bike.

The Honda CBR500R takes the YTZ8V case. The Antigravity ATZ-7 RE-START is a drop-in for that case: 150 cranking amps, 1.3 lb, a built-in jump start that saves enough charge to get you home.

Why the year matters on this one

The CBR500R is a motorcycle where the battery changed mid-run: 2013 to 2018 takes the YTZ10S and 2019 to 2020 the YTZ8V. The plate above names the source for each year, and the table shows every run we have on file, so match the year to the case before you order.

For 2019 to 2020 that means the Antigravity ATZ-7 RE-START: 150 cranking amps, 1.3 pounds, the same case in lithium. Its RE-START function puts the battery to sleep before a parasitic draw can drain it, then wakes it with one press for a jump start. Charge it with a lithium-compatible charger or maintainer for the off-season and it outlasts the lead-acid battery it replaces by years.

What size battery does a Honda CBR500R take?+
It depends on the year: 2013 to 2018 takes the YTZ10S and 2019 to 2020 the YTZ8V. For 2019 to 2020 that is the Antigravity ATZ-7 RE-START, the lithium drop-in for the YTZ8V case. The table above shows every run we have on file, so match your year to the case before you order.
Will a lithium battery work in a CBR500R without changes?+
Yes, on a bike with a healthy charging system: the lithium battery uses the same case, the same posts and the same cables, and it drops in where the lead-acid battery sat. Bikes older than about 2000 should have their voltage regulator and rectifier checked first, since a failing one overcharges any battery and lithium tolerates it less. Fill any gap in the tray with the foam spacers most lithium motorcycle batteries include.
Do I need a different charger for a lithium motorcycle battery?+
Use a charger or maintainer with a lithium (LiFePO4) mode. A lead-acid trickle charger can push the wrong voltage profile, and a desulfation mode can damage a lithium pack. A lithium-profile maintainer over the off-season keeps it topped without harm, and the battery loses only a few percent of charge a month sitting on its own.
