Battery
New poster here, but, have on other forums for other bike. 09 Gs I believe it is. Battery is dead and going to replace it. I am hearing the odyssey PC680 is a good replacement. Also, where the heck is the batt and how do I get to it. I am assuming body panels need to be removed.
THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know my RTS battery is underneath the seat. Not sure about the RS. Others on the board will have that answer. Dale

I'm a big fan of the Odyssey PC-680. I gave the original Yuasa battery to the mechanic that put my 2010 RT together and had him install a PC-680 that I furnished. I've had really good luck with Odysseys. Had one that lasted over 7 years on a BMW and that's the longest by far that a battery ever lasted me on a bike. Here's a link to one on the net with free shipping. You might be able to beat the price if you search a little but be sure to include shipping in the price. Also, be sure to put a full charge on any battery before you install it. That can make a huge difference in battery life.

Strongest Batteries for their size.
MotoBatt Batteries have higher amps in any size you need. Same size with more power and reserve than others.

Since you asked the question where the battery is, click link on the bottom of my post and it will take you to a thread with videos that will show you where the battery is and also it will show you how to install a battery tender further down the thread. Be patient because the thread takes about 30 seconds to load.

How about getting a RT so you can make some videos to help us out with our RT's?

CanAm Spyder Battery 24 A/H
As stated MotoBatt always rate higher for the same size unit. I wouldn't degrade the electrical system with a lower rated battery. From what I have read here the electronics don't respond well to low voltage conditions.

THANK YOU ALL!!!!
THANK YOU ALL for the GREAT RESPONSES!!!!!
Bikers are the best no matter what they ride!!!!! It's nice to see the Bombardier engineers didn't change the ease of access or the battery from the Sea Doo to the Spyder. It would be nice if they learned a little from Honda or another bike manufacturer on ease of access.
ANYWAY, I am off to find a battery today. One tip for you guys, make sure you watch the rookie rider you let take her for a ride when they get back, turn the key OFF. I ASS u MED. Not a good thing.
GREAT VIDEOS that I will bookmark for future ref.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANKS FOLKS and SAFE RIDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We'll see you on the road.
