Battery wires?

[viperryder]

Am replacing my original battery and I have three wires. Two are black and the other is two lager red wires. I assume the red goes to the positive terminal and the others I don't know where they go. Any help?

Red is + or Positive. Black is - or Negative. The wires should fall naturally to the proper posts. On my 2012 the positive + post is toward the front of the bike. Please be careful. If some one had a picture that would be helpful.

:hun: three wires ..... two are black ...... two are larger red ........ that equals four wires, you confused me. (But that's not hard to do)

as stated above red goes to + positive and black-goes to negative but to be safe always connect the red wires to + first. The the black ones. This will avoid shorting out systems or blowing fuses...:lecturef_smilie:

My mistake. Two red wires are going to one terminal. On the plus terminal goes a red rubber boot. This boot has two holes for wires. This leads me to believe that there should be two wires going to the positive terminal. Sorry for confusion.:bowdown::bowdown:
