As battery's on modern bikes are gel and they are 150mm instead of 135mm but they are a lot lower i will have to cut the side out of the box now to make it fit in :roll:

Been busy working on the frame today, I have moved the tank pins back so the tank sits a bit further back to give me a bit more stearing lock. Also done a bit more bracing, made the rear master cylinder bracket and finished the battery box,removed all unwanted brakets and center stand mounts. removed the bottom footpeg nut on the chain side as it is in the way for the chian, I have also removed some of the frame to give me some clearance for the chain as i am not happy with how close the chain is to the frame with the off set sproket. Tommorow i will finish that off and make some rear indicator brakets and it will finally be ready for powder coat. :D :D :D :D
