Hi,
It might be useful for someone in the future but my BMW battery started acting up and feeling it would be better safe than sorry, I just updated my battery. After stupid amounts of cross checking physical sizes with varying results I took the the average as correct and ordered the Shido LTZ12 HP S battery. I’ve had Shido’s on all my bikes except the Gen 4 for years and years and not a problem. Now Performance Parts happen to be doing that HP battery for £100 pound off. It’s just arrived and it slotted straight in with the pull bracket as well. The only mod I did whilst waiting for the battery this morning was to cut away the tiny webs at the back of the bmw housing. (See pics) I don’t know if I needed to but it does give 10mm…ish more room. Ta J
