hey guys I am gonna run a second battery on my bike but I was wondering how the people that have one mount them up. I have an idea on what Im gonna do but just wanted to get a few opinions and go from there. I was planning on putting it in the back between the frame rails where the storage box is but I am still trying to design a holder for it. any suggestions?

I have my second battery mounted right beside my original I just extended the original battery holder out to fit a second in.. It might not work for you depending on your tires. Sorry no pics.

Second battery box idea does not work on my 700. The secaond on hit the top of the tranny.. But you can cut the front half of your storage box off and build your own mount.. That's what I did..
