Hi,
Battery died today while waiting for a friend with the side lights on, so i had to leave it round his, anyway, it's an L9 and i know the battery is under the front seat, and i haven't ever taken it off before, so as silly as it sounds.... how do you actually remove the battery??? i only ask because he's had a quick look at it and he said looks like you have to remove the fairing as the terminals run into the side of the batter with 2 fuse boxes of some sort on a rail above the battery. as i said i haven't actually seen it yet, so any help would be much appreciated :) thanks in advance

Mike :D

Remove the CDI and fuse box and you'll see the terminals on top of the battery
