Video tutorial

In this video, we will see how to replace the battery of a BMW F800R: we start by removing the eight screws on the upper fairing of the motorcycle: this way we will remove the cover and expose the battery, which is located very close to the handlebars.

We remove the electrical connectors on top, and then we remove the fixing screw of the bracket; we remove the negative and positive terminals, which are screwed in for greater stability, and remove the battery, which we will then dispose of at an authorized center.

We replace it with a new one, and screw the terminals back in, starting with the positive one. We put the fixing bracket back in place, the electrical connector, and then we can reposition the cover by fastening the eight screws.
