We've been busy behind the scenes here at MyBikeBits, and we're excited to share one of the biggest product updates we've made to our Shido battery range to date.
What's Changed in the Shido Range?
Over the past few weeks, we've completely overhauled our Shido motorcycle battery listings. Every product in the range has been updated with detailed, accurate descriptions that make it easier than ever to find the right battery for your bike. Whether you're looking for a compact lithium unit for a scooter or a high-performance HP series battery for a large cruiser or tourer, each listing now clearly explains:
- What the battery replaces (YTX, YTZ, and other OEM references)
- Key technical specifications including voltage, capacity, cold cranking amps (CCA), dimensions, and weight
- The differences between standard and HP (High Performance) variants
- Terminal configuration details where relevant — including left-hand positive (L and HL) variants
- Compatibility notes to help you choose with confidence
For batteries where we have full datasheet information, you'll now find complete spec tables — so you can compare models side by side and make an informed decision before you buy.
Introducing the Shido DC 4.0 Dual Charger
We've also added the Shido DC 4.0 Dual Battery Charger to our listings — a professional-grade charger that can maintain two motorcycle batteries simultaneously. Whether you're keeping your daily rider topped up alongside a stored bike over winter, or managing multiple machines, the DC 4.0 is the smart, fully automatic solution.
Alongside the charger, we've listed the full range of Shido charging accessories:
- 6mm Charger Cable — permanent eyelet connection for hassle-free charging access
- 6mm Monitor Cable — permanent connection with integrated battery monitoring
- 30A Clamp Cable — quick-connect clamps for flexible, tool-free charging
- Cigarette Connector Cable — charge via your bike's 12V DIN socket without accessing the battery
- 3m Extension Cable — extra reach for garages, sheds, and awkward storage locations
Part of a Bigger Picture
This Shido update is just one part of a much larger programme of work we have underway to improve the MyBikeBits experience. We're investing significant time and effort into improving product information, expanding our range, and making it easier for you to find exactly what you need — whether that's a battery, a charger, brake pads, or any other performance component for your motorcycle.
There's a lot more happening in the background, and we'll be sharing further updates as new products and improvements go live. Our goal is simple: to make MyBikeBits the most reliable, well-informed destination for motorcycle parts in the UK.
As always, if you have any questions about the Shido range or need help finding the right battery or charger for your bike, don't hesitate to get in touch — we're here to help.
