looked up motobatt batteries.

does the main leads connect on to a seperate area then in opposite corners and then it leaves all those 3 screws either side for any further auxillary connectors?

looks neat

Hey Quiffster, could you post a photo of it installed? Be interesting to see how it fits.

Course I can mike ..
Its a bit bigger tha standard I reckon and makes the plastic side piece hard to fit back on so had to cable tie through the hole. Hidden under seat though so not a problem.. got the optimate fly lead connected now as well as my other stuff .. mottobatt has a little more oomph I think from the blurb ..

It sits in same gap
Has connectors each corner so 2 positive 2 neg
Was 45 quid delivered from busters .. but now I feel confident that bike will start and run ok with all my attatchments .

I think the last couple o years have drained it beyond redemption..however my optimate might bring it back from the dead ... sods law

That looks well useful, thanks for the photos Quiff. I may well get one of those if mine goes u/s (it is 6 years old now).
