matt taylor Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 There should be two bolts on either side of the seat at the rear , look underneath you should be able to see them.. 10mm if i remember, you will have to get a spanner behind and a spanner on the front for removal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YPVS TONE Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Isn't the battery under the RH side panel? I seem to remember it was on the earlier SR125. Tony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagtails Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 My gf's SR just had the same problem: Take off both side panels, LHS pulls straight off with firm but gentle force, RHS has one 10mm bolt. Unscrew the piece of plastic on the RHS to reveal the positive battery terminal. Using a 10mm socket, or a screw driver, take off the positive battery terminal. Disconnect the drain tube (RHS, it pulls off easily). Use a screw driver to unscrew the negative terminal on the LHS. It's a bit tricky as you have to navigate through a few cables and components. Battery should then slide out from the RHS. The seat can stay on, but if you need to take it off, there's a 10mm bolt either side towards the back. Hope this helps. Steve.
