I've only had the FJR for a couple of months, and knew I would need to replace the battery before long. I hastened that need by leaving the ignition on while upgrading to a Cee Bailey windscreen recently. But that's not the funny part.
I finally had some spare time last night to get the bike ready for her new power source, so I start by removing the 2 seats .... that's where every bike has their battery, right?
So, being relatively new to the bike and refusing to resort to the owner's manual, I keep removing body panels, trays, ECU, etc. to find this elusive battery.
Wasted 30+ minutes before giving in to manual and removing the 2 fasteners on the right-side dashboard panel. Wow, what a colossal waste of time!
So, go ahead and have a snicker on me today. What's the point of making a goof if you can't laugh at yourself?
