Battery box and electricity

As I said, for such a basic bike, onboard power is impressive. Much of it is hidden away beneath the container, but the rest, the rest was located under the seat, around a large battery box behind the air filter and hooked here and there on the rear frame.

For my project I have to organize everything down on the photo over the battery, invisibly.

I'll make a much smaller battery box, which will be hidden behind the side number plate .That's all I have to stay and make "stealth" !!!.

I'll make my battery box in a thin aluminum foil.

I make a cardboard template to validate the size. It then serves as my boss to cut the aluminum.

Cutting, bending, riveting ... and here's the result. It is light, very (too?) Lightly.I attach the box on its support and filled with everything I can ....

... all but the regulator must be able to heat (a little but not too much).

For this one I'll recover and cutting support with screws located at the back of the attachment of the tank ...

... and I place underneath.
The controller is thus a discrete location where it can "breathe."I notice that my battery box is rickety attached to its support.

After drilling the support to house them, so I will ultimately hang on small silents blocks (I recovered during the "pruning" of the frame).

I also get the old metal box original battery, the severs all sides, the minimized (hunting weight) ...

... and soda on the course to keep my new battery box aluminum.And it's not over... well, frankly there are two things that I could not fit in the box battery (in addition to the controller). This is the starter relay and a "little gizmo which references are erased" !! ??

View that these two "widgets" have notches to hang the frame, I weld two lamella-lugs-ties against the rear support my battery box ...

All well find its discreet and convenient location. Everything but the relay rear turn signals. I would put the LEDs lights so I will have to install a new relay (but they are now in mini size).

One last thing, but important, I weld on the support of the saddle for a nut to bolt the ground there.
