is the battery under the seat? sorry...

hi, sorry for the dumb question. but i can't seem to find this info in the owner's manual. so i guess the battery is under the seat? i haven't had a reason to take off the seat to check.

thanks.

Yep. Sort of.

It's behind the side panel on the shifter side.
Taking the seat off, and removing the side panel gives you total access to battery.

great thanks a lot. do i need to remove the panel if i'm just installing a battery tender?

Just the side panel to gain access to terminals.

The side panel tucks under the seat though...so depending on how much you wish to wiggle stuff around, and how tight your fits are, it might be easier your first time to remove seat first, then remove side panel.

Once you know how those two things fit together, you'll see how it can be done without removing seat.
