isiahstites is on a distinguished road
I removed the old battery tray from the left side of the seat post because it wan't allowing me to bring my left knee in. With the new fairing I want the left and right sides of the fairing to be the widest portions of the bike when I am riding not my knees. By moving the batter I can turn the oil tank slightly on the seat post and this will move the filler neck out of the way and allow my right knee to tuck in as well.



I cut the mounting bracket off.


This is the bottom of the seat post. If I had a rear fender it would mount here. I cut a wedge out of each side so I could bend the whole mount down.


Here the mount has been moved down and the wedge is gone and will be welded.


Here is the new location of the battery






I didn't get much else done today as I kept screwing things up so I felt is was best just to walk away and come back another day.
