The KTM 390 Duke (2013-2025 models) ships with a Yuasa YTX9-BS, a 12V/8Ah AGM battery — the OEM spec, also sold as the TZ9 family across Indian aftermarket brands. The 390 Duke is overwhelmingly an India/international market, so pricing and brand availability below are for the Indian aftermarket, where Exide, Amaron, SF Sonic, Livfast, Livguard, and Powerzone all sell a TZ9-spec replacement.

The picks, in detail
Exide Xplore XLTZ9 (9Ah)
Exide’s higher-capacity Xplore-series option for the 390 Duke, sold directly for this model on Flipkart.
- 12V 9Ah
- Sealed maintenance-free
- Slightly higher capacity than the stock 8Ah spec for marginally longer reserve
- Priced well above Exide’s own lower-capacity FXLO-XLTZ9 for the capacity gain
Exide FXLO-XLTZ9 (8Ah)
Exide’s standard 8Ah replacement matching the factory YTX9-BS spec exactly.
- 12V 8Ah
- Sealed maintenance-free AGM
- Matches OEM capacity exactly at a lower price than the Xplore variant
- Exchange-vs-no-exchange pricing varies significantly by retailer — check both before buying
Amaron ABR-PR-APBTZ9R (8Ah)
Amaron’s direct TZ9-spec replacement, widely stocked across Indian battery retailers for the 390 Duke.
- 12V 8Ah
- Sealed maintenance-free
- Competitive pricing against Exide’s equivalent-capacity FXLO-XLTZ9
- Exchange-price gap is wide — without an old battery to trade in, the price climbs noticeably
SF Sonic F2W0-48S-TZ9 (9Ah)
SF Sonic’s TZ9-spec battery, one of the more heavily discounted options in this lineup at some retailers.
- 12.4V nominal
- 14Ah rated
- 48-month warranty
- Longest quoted warranty (48 months) of the batteries here
- Price varies unusually widely by retailer — worth comparing more than one seller before buying
Powerzone 48PZ TZ9R
A budget TZ9-spec option with a straightforward MRP and 24+24 month warranty structure.
- TZ9 spec
- 24+24 month warranty
- Clear, consistent MRP without the wide exchange/no-exchange spread seen on some competitors
- Less brand recognition in India than Exide, Amaron, or SF Sonic
Livguard LGZ HH TZ9 (8Ah)
Livguard’s TZ9-spec battery, built with vibration-resistant construction aimed at supporting fuel injection and LED electronics.
- 12V 8Ah
- Vibration-resistant construction
- 48-month warranty
- Vibration resistance is a genuine plus for a single-cylinder naked bike like the 390 Duke
- Newer entrant to the two-wheeler battery market than Exide or Amaron
Livfast DuroMoto LFDZ TZ9 HH (8-9Ah)
Livfast’s DuroMoto-series TZ9 battery, sold in both 8Ah and 9Ah capacity variants for the 390 Duke.
- 8-9Ah depending on variant
- 24+24 month warranty
- Two capacity options let you match closer to stock (8Ah) or step up slightly (9Ah)
- Pricing between the 8Ah and 9Ah variants isn’t always clearly distinguished by sellers — confirm which you’re ordering
Buying tips
- The OEM battery is a Yuasa YTX9-BS, sold in India through KTM-specific aftermarket importers rather than mainstream battery retailers — it’s genuine and well-regarded on KTM owner forums, but harder to source locally than the Indian brands above.
- TZ9 is the common Indian battery-industry code equivalent to YTX9-BS — Exide, Amaron, SF Sonic, Livguard, and Livfast all badge their 390 Duke battery under some variant of “TZ9,” so match the code, not just the brand name, to your bike’s original spec.
- Compare exchange vs. no-exchange pricing carefully — several brands here show a gap of ₹200-400 depending on whether you trade in your old battery.
