I posted a while ago that I have had my Spyder in storage since late May, 2009. I will be flying over to pick it up two weeks from now and driving it back home which will be a 2 day trip. Since I didn't use a battery tender (I don't like the stock battery anyway) I'll need to replace the battery.



What are the exact tools that I'll need to access the battery and replace it? Keep in mind that I'll be flying there so I'll have to pack light. And being that the Spyder doesn't offer that much space either I have to think about bringing those tools back with me. And if anyone can provide some directions (shop manual, personal experience) that would be greatly appreciated.



I'm so excited to go riding again. Since it's been so long I got trip interruption insurance too. I can't any chances. I just hope the weather is decent (I know it won't be hot, that's for sure) but I got some serious rain/warmth gear that worked flawlessly the last time I went riding on my Spyder.
