As Australia’s largest motorcycle battery distributor, SSB PowerSport has developed batteries for a wide range of applications. One of its most successful and rewarding projects was the creation of Australia’s most powerful battery for motorcycles fitted with high-compression V-Twin engines. These engines demand exceptionally high cold cranking amps (CCA) as well as long service life.

The result was the SSB DryCell (HVT) battery, which quickly became the first choice for many Harley riders across Australia. Building on this success, SSB PowerSport expanded the concept to make these powerful, long-life batteries more accessible and affordable for all riders.

The SSB V-Spec range is designed to deliver outstanding cranking power, durability, and reliability across a wide variety of power sport applications—including road bikes, dirt bikes, quads, Harley-Davidsons, and jet skis. While engineered to handle the demands of high-compression V-Twin engines, the V-Spec range also offers excellent value and performance for everyday riders.

SSB V-Spec batteries are completely spill-proof and leak-proof and can be mounted in any orientation, including upside down. Manufactured using flame-retardant ABS plastic and advanced AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) technology, they are among the safest and most versatile motorcycle batteries available in Australia.

These genuine VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) batteries are produced using state-of-the-art design and construction processes and comply with numerous Australian and international standards, including ISO 9001 Quality Assurance. With more than 17 years of experience, SSB PowerSport is recognised as one of Australia’s most trusted and highest-quality motorcycle battery manufacturers.
