Any info and pictures of mounting connections would be helpful. Want to see what others have done before I do it. Battery cover has 11 ltr. Rear seat bag mounted on battery cover. I Want the leads, from the battery, to be outside of the battery cover so I can attach leads from battery tender to them.

I've ordered the tender wire to the battery and the unit that mounts to the battery cover. When they arrive, I'll post pictures of the installed unit.

Take battery cover off, put the battery tender pigtail on the battery and then have the end come out by the back left seat and put the cover back on.
Did this on the kids gen4 summit. Worked great, when not in use I just tucked it under the seat.

I like your idea. A lot easier to do then my idea of a plug attachment on back end of battery cover. Will check it out on my sled

I attached battery tender wire as "Twistgrip"(above) suggested and a lot simpler to do. First picture is connection to battery. Second picture is tender wire coming out of the front of the battery cover. Third picture is tender wire connection end with all the tender wire tucked in space under rear of the seat. Simple and easy to do.

Didn't they come that way from the factory? I had two of them that looked just like that when i picked them up from the dealer.
