Big crank battery question (Read 172 times)

bennyc YaBB Newbies Offline Posts: 8 PA Gender:	Big crank battery question 04/11/08 at 07:31:27 I am looking to replace the original battery in my 2007 savage with a Big Crank. The big crank website only cross-references up to a 2002 LS650. Does anyone know if that model (ETX15L) would be suitable for a 2007 ALso, what mods (if any) need to be made to make it fit? Thanks

Except for flattening the 'inside' tabs on the terminals?

Just flatten one side of each connector with a pair of pliers and shove it in. Out of the box to a running bike in about a minute. The '07 is the same as the '86 as far as the battery goes.

Does a battery tender attach to the terminals in the same way as on the orginal battery? I am talking about the leads you leave on permanently, not the aligator clips. (I am concerned since the terminals on the big crank are so large.) Thanks again.
