Is the Varta 504011005 the same battery as the Varta YB4L-B?
Yes. 504011005 is the ETN code Varta uses for its YB4L-B battery, so you can search for it by either code.
How much does the Varta YB4L-B weigh?
The YB4L-B weighs 1.65 kg. For reference, the Varta YTX5L-BS (4 Ah) weighs 1.83 kg.
Which battery is equivalent to the Varta YB4L-B?
With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Exide EB4L-B and Fulbat FB4L-B. As the YB4L-B is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.

How do I stop the motorcycle battery going flat in winter?
Connect it to a maintenance charger or disconnect it if the bike will sit for more than a month. A flat motorcycle battery sulphates in a few weeks.
Lead-acid technology in the YB4L-B
Inside, the YB4L-B is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the YB4L-B is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.
