== Disconnecting the Battery ==


Unless it is something very simple, it is a good idea to disconnect the battery while working on your cycle. Remember that some wires are hot even when the key is in OFF position.
To disconnect the battery:
* Remove the seat.
* Unscrew the bolt on the Negative (-) terminal of the battery. Push the wire aside, screw the bolt back in (this way it won't get lost).
* Put a piece of duct/scotch tape on the terminal.
