Removing Battery

[kwizatz-haderah]

How do you remove the Battery on a Spyder?
I think my battery is completely gone. I didn't use a battery tender over the winter and didn't start it in several months. I've had a battery charger on it for several hours today and it still doesn't have enough juice to start. Should I look for a new battery or is there something else that I'm missing??
Once before I had the same issue and I jump started it with off a car and it was fine, but since it's been sitting for so long this time around, I don't want to jump start it and risk getting stranding somewhere is the battery really is gone. Any advise, tips, recommendations and instructions on what to do will be greatly appericated!
Thanks in Advance.

Before you replace it, disconnect it and clean the terminals and posts. Sometimes a bit of corrosion can prevent a proper charge. It's worth the small effort and delay. I agree that if you have to replace it, try not to use stock. BTW, if you do end up with a stock one, there is a special, lengthy prep process that must be followed.
