1 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS BATTERY CONNECTION EXTENDERS
If you ride a modern motorcycle, there's no guarantee that the battery is placed conveniently beneath the seat (ask an FJR1300 owner!). Electrical Connections' Battery Connection Extenders allow you to, in essence, relocate your battery terminals to a more convenient location, making it easier to install accessories, jump-start the bike, or hook up a battery maintainer. The $30 kit comes with fused leads and a variety of ring terminals. electricalconnection.com
