Hey clan! How's everyone doing?
In this video, I will show you how to install a new battery, as well as your starter, fuel pump, accessories, and main relay.
I was having starting issues, where I originally suspected my battery. It was two years old, and showing a bit lower voltage than I prefer.
Once I replaced the battery, I realized that I was also having relay issues.
It's been posted by a variety of people that the relays on these bikes can sometimes fail. Looks like it was my turn.
So, ahead I went, replacing the relays, as well.
I hope this video helps someone if they need to do the same.
Here are links to some necessary items.
First, the link to the free, online Service Manual. It's a big file, so you just have to download it rather than save. The link was good, and safe when I used it a couple of years ago.

Next, the relays. They pertinent info is that they are CM1-R-12V relays. I purchased Panasonic/Nais brand. Here is the link to where I bought them:

Finally, the battery. I am using a Yuasa, KMX14-BS glass matt, maintenance free battery.
Let me know what you think, and if you have any questions. Enjoy!
