Hi Steve,

Looking at your picture I see why you're avatar is Esteve.
All original electrical parts are replaced by more modern pats, isn't it ?

Right track, Jensen, but not quite there. When I joined this forum in '03 I had been working,
for a couple of years, as a marine electronics tech for a company called e³ systems
(yes, all lower case by design) or, more correctly, e-to-the-power-of-3 (cubed) systems;
the company started life, in electrical & electronic engineering, in '96 with 3 like-minded guys here in Maj.
I created my e3steve@msn.com email handle when I bought my first PC in '01,
so it made sense to simply carry the first part forward.

I left the company to go it alone (again) in '05, but still retain the MSN
email (my first) address. Obviously I dropped out of the company's
domain with steve@e3s.com.

Sorry to post the same thing on two threads, but I just got my Motobatt MB9U today off of Ebay and tried to install it. It seems to be too tall. I look like it sits higher than the picture earlier in the thread. My seat will not clip on its pegs. I'll post a picture in a few minutes.

Sorry guys, it appears I am the idiot this time. I was unaware that there were two "boxes" under the battery that were removable. I took one off and it seems to fit great.

I've got one of those in my little custom track bike.

Since the battery question has been answered, allow me to take this thread on a tangent....

Gorgeous little tank on that roadracer, Mark. I see an planishing hammer set up in the background. Did you make that tank?

regards,
Rob
