    Spoke to Corbin this past week and they have no intentions of changing the seat pan. So if you want to take your side panels off, to get at your battery, the seat must be removed. Normally this wouldn't be an issue to remove two bolts. But if you have a rear rack or back rest then that has to be removed first, PIA. Love the seat but I'm not happy about this result.

    I agree with my NJ F6B rider Frank.The only thing different for me is I owned a Spyder for 3 years and the battery was just as bad of a spot to get to.So I will
    cross my fingers and hope I do not have to get to the battery while on the road.
    Ride it like you stole it

    I carry one of these with all the basics in it at all times:

    More often than not, it only comes out to tighten/adjust some of the aftermarket do-dad's I have, but 'whatever tools it takes' for a battery replacement have always been in/on every bike I've ever owned.

    Probably comes from that one time I had a dead bat in my P/U in Austin... A new battery was right across the road at Sams,,, Didn't have so much as a pair of pliers with me to swap it out,,,

    Let's just say a 'little light went on' and I travel with basic tools now in every vehicle I own.
