How to change the battery on a 2006

[jones3869]

I lifted the seat expecting the battery, but no go. It's dead and won't hold a charge. The new one should be here in a week and I don't have the owners manual. How do I get to the battery?

Thanks in advance for any help!!

There are two alen key bolts holding down the fuel tank just near the handlebars...unscrew these and lift up the tank (seat should be off the bike!). Under the tank you will find the air box and in front of this you will see the battery. Use something to hold up the tank or get someone to hold it up while you remove the battery.

Hope that helps.
