Thank you for posting this. I watched a few other videos on this topic and they didn't explain a couple of things quite as clearly as you did. With your instructions, I was able to get my battery swapped in no time. It being a lithium ion battery, it was super light as well!

If your careful and do it a lot it doesn't matter. If you want to do it by the book and your worried about things then the perfect procedure is Remove Negative First, then positive Put positive back on first, then negative. Again, we have done it for so many years, we are just careful not to touch tings besides the battery with the terminals.

Ryan, a small plastic cable tie or a bread wrapper twist tie can also be used to tie the positive or negative wires together. Even an old shoe lace. Just something to tie the wires together. Depending on how often yo go into the battery this may help.

6. Bei Ausstattung mit einer Sicherheitssystemsirene den Zündschalter EINSCHALTEN, wenn der Handsfree-Schlüsselanhänger vorhanden ist, um das Sicherheitssystem zu entschärfen. Das Batterieminuskabel (-) zuerst abklemmen. Kommt das Pluskabel (+) bei angeschlossenem Minuskabel (-) versehentlich in Kontakt mit Masse, können die daraus resultierenden Funken eine Explosion der Batterie verursachen, was zu schweren oder tödlichen Verletzungen führen kann. 7. Das Batterieminuskabel (schwarz) vom Batterieminuspol (-) abklemmen. 8. Das Batteriepluskabel (rot) vom Batteriepluspol (+) abklemmen. 9. Den Heberiemen (2) ergreifen und daran ziehen, um die Batterie anzuheben. Wenn die Batterie weit genug heraus gehoben wurde, um einen guten Griff zu ermöglichen, kann sie von Hand vollkommen entfernt werden.

Another important topic is to speak about is battery lead removal sequence. I mean to remove the battery, remove negative lead first this will prevent a short circuit with bike's frame when you're removing the positive lead from the battery AS well to put back battery in place, connect positive lead first because if you mess up when doing negative connections like short to frame the negative post and the negative lead, nothing will happen if key switch is in OFF state. but doing reverse, i mean connect negative main wire to negative battery post and messing up with positive main wire with battery positive and frame, worst will be bursting battery or melting wire or screwdriver or making a hole in the frame.

Last year riding back from Laconia i noticed my volt meter on the bike jumping around, i stopped at a rest area and shut the bike off to get a drink and when i tried to start the bike it clicked and was dead. I noticed the positive side had loosened over time beween the vibration etc..the reason I’m watching this is because it happened again! That positive cable is very sensitive if not cranked imo.

Great Video but you really should redo it since people don't read comments when viewing and following the instruction. The Negative Terminal should ALWAYS be connected last while in your video you did connect the Positive terminal last. This could cause an unsuspecting person to create a spark in an area that has battery gasses and blow up the battery or even worse send an electrical surge through out the system and fry electronic components.

So... my Friends in the "Trades" tell me the "lithium-ion" batteries are NOT for cold weather. They say, when on jobs in the winter they have to warm (placed on the dash with the De-froster and Blower on high) the lithium-ion Battery(s) to get them to work in their tools that use them. Living in the Great White North (AKA the Tundra - AKA Minnesota) I've been known to ride when the temp is below freezing. What do you know about the battery you installed and its ability to start the Scooter in the cold weather? Thank you for your video and time! Willie

Ryan, Thank you for the 411! The original battery in my 2011 Street Glide will not start the bike in colder weather. It's time to replace it. I don't mind paying a little more if it's worth it. Thanks again! Willie

Remove Negative First, then positive Put positive back on first, then negative. But, as long as you don't touch the frame with terminals etc you can do it either way. The above is the safest way.

Turn your ignition on, then disconnect the battery. I'm trying to figure out how to store mine without the battery In it but I don't want to leave the key in it either.

Glad you liked the video! We recommend that for many. Once you're experienced and you're not worried about grounding out on the frame you can quickly do it either way. If your not comfortable yet here is the order you should do it. Remove Negative First, then positive. Put positive back on first, then negative.

If you turn the ignition on, wait for the alarm to disable then pull the main fuse out before you mess around with the battery. The alarm shouldnt go off then
