BikeMaster Battery Cable Bolt

BikeMaster Battery Cable Bolts: The Small Part That Makes a Big Difference

When it comes to motorcycle maintenance, few components are as easy to overlook — and as critical to get right — as the battery cable bolt. These small fasteners are responsible for securing cable terminals directly to your battery posts, ensuring a solid, corrosion-resistant connection that keeps your electrical system running reliably. BikeMaster has made it a point of emphasis to deliver precisely engineered battery cable bolts that meet or exceed OEM specifications for a wide range of powersport applications.

A Brand Built for Riders Who Work on Their Own Machines

With a legacy spanning over four decades, BikeMaster has been delivering quality parts, know-how, and confidence to empower every rider to master their bike. BikeMaster continually strives to deliver a complete line of tools and replacement maintenance parts for metric sport, cruiser, and off-road motorcycles at reasonable prices. Battery cable bolts are a perfect example of this philosophy in action — an unglamorous but essential piece of hardware that BikeMaster has refined into a reliable, easy-to-source solution for DIY mechanics and professional technicians alike.

Multiple Sizes to Match Your Battery and Application

One of the most frustrating aspects of battery service is tracking down the correct bolt size — these fasteners are notoriously difficult to find at general hardware stores. BikeMaster solves this by offering their battery cable bolts across a range of sizes and nut configurations. Riders have found BikeMaster battery bolts to be a perfect fit for applications including Honda VFR and Honda Stateline batteries, as well as a reliable replacement for small motorcycle and powersport craft batteries. Available configurations include:

• 5 x 9mm Bolt / Square Nut / Spacer sets — ideal for smaller displacement bikes and scooters
• 6 x 12mm Bolt / Square Nut sets — a widely used size compatible with many standard motorcycle batteries
• 6 x 12mm Bolt / Rectangle Nut sets — designed for batteries using rectangular terminal slots
• 6 x 14.8mm Bolt / Hex Nut sets — suited for larger batteries requiring a hex-style fastening system

BikeMaster replacement battery hardware comes as complete nut and bolt sets, making it smart to keep an extra set in the toolbox just in case. Sets are sold in packs of two. This approach means you always have a backup on hand — because a stripped or lost bolt at the wrong moment can leave your bike dead in the garage.

Designed for TruGel, AGM, and Conventional Battery Lines

BikeMaster's battery cable bolts are engineered to work seamlessly alongside the brand's own battery lineup, including their TruGel, AGM Platinum II, and conventional battery series. Replacement battery bolt sets are confirmed compatible with BikeMaster battery models including the MG10L-A2, MG14A-A2, MG14L-A2, MG16AL-A2, MG19-BS, and several others. That said, many riders use these bolts as universal replacements across third-party batteries from Yuasa and other brands, thanks to the standardized M5 and M6 thread sizing common across the industry.

Why Getting the Right Size Matters

Not all battery cable bolts are interchangeable. When selecting a bolt set, it is important to measure your existing bolts or the hole on your battery terminals to ensure proper fitment. BikeMaster's multi-size lineup makes it straightforward to find the right match without having to source mismatched hardware from a general retailer. Whether you ride a sportbike, cruiser, scooter, or ATV, having the correctly sized fastener ensures a secure terminal connection and protects against voltage drop, arcing, or accidental disconnection.
