battery relocation
 

hi,
i've got a 2015 ec200 with the battery located i the seat.
this is a hassle when changing the airfilter.
has anyone already found a better location for a battery?
thanks, hannes.

I fit up a big Anderson style plug to the battery leads so you can lift the seat and remove the battery/seat combo and change the filter a little easier.

sounds like a great sollution, i'll see what i can find locally,thanks :)

Something like this would work.

since there is no other place to fit (a full size) battery, i'll go for the suggested sollution.
i don't want to install li-ion battery, because of the procedure to warm up the bike... altough,thinking about it, my previous bike (sherco 300 SE) didn't have a kicker, so it had to work every time, now i could startup with the kicker and when needed (once warm) i could use the starter.
anyone have experiences with smaller size li-ion batteries? and not the +- 100? batteries. :rolleyes:

On my '18 I have an Anti Gravity 240cca Lithium battery.
I have never needed to do special cold start procedures.
Doesn't even need recharging.
