My battery has had it and looking to replace it. Do I have to use the same model number as the one I have in? Mine is a BS BTX5L-BS 12V 4ah
Was looking at the yuasa ytx5l-bs 12v 4ah but it might be a slightly higher 80a.
Regards. Scezy

It needs to be the same physical shape but the capacity and cranking amps just need to be broadly similar - less important on a little 125.

As said, any battery dimensionally similar with roughly the same capacity is fine.
Halfords sell most motorbike batteries. Yuasa included.

Or you can buy online.

I have bought my last four batteries from Tayna.

Their website (like others) has a selection by vehicle tool.

I found them cheapest too.

Thanks for your advice, I’ll check the dimensions before I buy one.

and make sure that the battery terminals are orientated the same way as the battery you are replacing.
