How To Train Your Donkey - Part 9

[sunschild57]

Job blocked the site for awhile but now it's back. Guess they realize they couldn't get any work out of me without my forum breaks

In the 3 years ive been on this sit here at school its never been blocked, so im hoping it stays that way<taps on wood>

Cause the firewalls we have are super overzealous and block google half the time and its terrible how we cant use google or yahoo or anything lol...bing is usually the only one we can use. Lucky so far

Fight the MAN!

Yeah its going to cost me at least 60 dollars for one...I should be able to install it myself. My mom put one in my dads VTX all by herself lol and Ive changed my ninjas...but my VTX is at a weird angle so i may end up spilling electrolyte sulfiric acid all over myself.....I wont be able to ride today either...ill need to order a battery within an hour or two otherwise it will be saturday before I can ride again Its supposed to be nice all day tomorrow nad I already got friday off of school and work

I thought we were workin on a V-star? I do have a bit of experience on an 1800 vtx. Can't get in my mind where the battery is though.

I work on a military installation and when DOD decided to block youtube and facebook, they also blocked this site. Department of Defense had a change of heart when they found ot that most of the deployed soldiers were using youtube and facebook to stay connected to their families. This site keeps me connected to my donkey family!

We are...my dad owns a 1300 VTX and my mom changed the battery for him while he was at work. Its right under the seat.

My v-star is right next to my exhaust pipes and it has a taught rubber band holding it in place and I cant figure out how to remove te rubber bit. The son of the Yamaha dealership is in my small engines class and he said it just loosens at one end and unhooks but I cant find it.

On the right side side of the bike there is a compartment with a small hex screw on the bottom left side. Use the larger hex wrench from your tool kit to remove this screw and the cover will pull off. The battery is then held behind a black plastic holder, which you can remove by prying the rubber strap off of the bottom.

I knew that much...just dotn know how to pry off the rubber strap with it being as tight as it is and not breaking it. Ill look more during my open and get it off my bike and on the charger so im not bleeding anything if a switch went bad or somthing and its draining my battery

Remove the plastic part holding the battery in place by pulling or prying the rubber strap attaching the bottom piece to the interior of the battery compartment

Remember, sometimes you must first break something in order to figure out the proper way to disassemble it
