As motorcycle batteries go, the battery for the Yamaha XT225 (often called the Yamaha Serow) is fairly small and straight forward. You'll want to find a battery that has a "7" mentioned somewhere in the size, like OPTIMA's QUAD7 ORANGETOP lithium motorcycle battery. This lightweight (1.7lbs) battery still packs a powerful punch and OPTIMA's POWERLINK system, which will help you on multiple fronts.

The battery on the Yamaha XT225 sits underneath a side faring panel and typically requires a screwdriver to access. OPTIMA's POWERLINK system gives you a remote dongle that can attach directly to the battery and still give you access to the battery to check voltage, turn the battery on and off or charge the battery, if needed. OPTIMA's CPR system will also automatically turn your battery off if it is getting discharged, which will hold enough energy in reserve to start your bike one more time and get you home safely.

Being sealed against dust and water intrusion is an often-overlooked feature on lithium motorcycle batteries, but if you encounter dust or water while riding, the last thing you want is to be stranded because dust or water penetrated the case of your battery. OPTIMA's ORANGETOP lithium batteries are all IP67-rated against dust and water intrusion, which means you can leave your bike parked at the bottom of a three-foot pond for up to 30 minutes and as long as you can get everything else on the engine to dry out, the battery will be good to go as well.

An OPTIMA battery charger or maintainer is also an excellent companion product for this battery and will help enhance battery performance and maximize battery lifespan.
