How do you get to the battery?

Post by vito »

I should have asked the dealer, but how does the panel come off to access the battery? Right now its not an issue, but come next winter I will need to either remove the battery to put it on a Battery Tender, or attach a pigtail so that I can hook it up to the Tender while leaving it in the scooter. I didn't want to just try and pop off the side panel, being nervous that I might break something. Advice would be appreciated.

The owners manual has some good pictures of exactly what you’re asking… Did you look there?

Thanks. I should have read further into the owner's manual. I erroneously thought that one of the plastic side panels needed to be removed to get to the battery. Much more sensible placement in the under seat area than some bikes that I have owned. Should be easy to attach the line for use with a battery tender once I take the battery out of that compartment.
