Hi, Have decided to move my battery as it needed renewing, also that I can fit an after market air filter at some point. Here's what I did in case you want to move yours.
After removing L/h panel and battery I removed the battery carrier by taking out the four self tappers that hold it to the air box.
Next removed the seat and using the cross member at the rear of the frame I drilled two 6mm holes in back of carrier so that battery will lay down bolted to it.
Make sure that you use flat headed screws as not to damage the battery when in place.
Check that the battery carrier doesn't foul the inside of the seat hump, a bit of trial and error.
When I was happy with the carriers position and it was tight I used some sticky backed foam padding to pack out the holder to take smaller battery,
Lengthened the battery leads to reach and replaced the seat.
