Motobatt battery problem - Take Care with those extra posts!

[BazF]

Gents,
I fitted a Mottobatt to my 2017 F3T so that I could use the extra 2 posts to wire accessories. Didn't work out.
I found that when I connected up the main pos and neg on the front posts, and the extras on the rear post, I got an immediate flash bang when I pushed the battery home. The Motobatt posts were in contact with the chassis. Lucky not to damage anything and had to use only the front posts for attaching everything.
Take care!
