Suggestions on wiring Loncin/ ATC 70

[Macs]

I am about 80% done with the atc70 buildup. I am starting to look at the wiring. I have seen pics where people have mounted the battery in the frame. I am unsure about this because of very poor access. What have yall done and what are some ideas. Pics would really help.

I did one and put the Battery in the frame. Its not that bad since its all mounted to the skid plate and that comes off with 4 bolts. On the one I did I also mounted a Battery Tender lead to it and ran the wire up inder the grabbar so that the owner could charge the battery if he wasn't riding it enough. Here are some oics of one I ddid and the last is one Treshombre did. You will need to cut out inner section of the frame out above the skidplate and fab up a box for the batt. I used a YTZ7S it is the smallest batt. I could find and has 130CCA, I think it is off a CRF450X. Ask ?s

What did you use to cut the inners out of the frame? Also do you think there is another way to mount that in there with out welding it. I do not have access to a welder.

I used a dremal to gring the spot welds down enogh I could get it out. I guess you could bolt something together with some carriage bolts on the bottom of the skid plate so not to hang up on anything. Or you could look at a batt box of of some quads or maybe a ATC125m ( I think) that bolts to the side on the grab bar.

you could try this ane drill some hole to mount it to a grab bar. Just an idea.

I wonder how it would look if i mounted that on the side of the frame. As high as i can get it. Right under the rear fenders?
