With difficulty for sure :-) probably one of the most inaccessible batteries i have tried to replace. The first time i did it the only way i could work it out was to remove the rear bodywork completely, then the undertray and Hugger, then remove the rear wheel, and then try to articulate the various wires into a position i could access the terminal bolts from. But, the good news is, there is an easier way :-) in time i will try and do a video, but for now you have a brief description. The tail/seat fairing will need removing, and the undertray. Then remove all the left side footrest hanger and silencer. Undo the terminal connections, and it will take a bit of “jiggling” but with patience (something needed for any Laverda) the battery will come out between the hugger and the frame, it can be done without removing the exhaust, but My Terigionis come off with 2 springs and a bolt so i found it easier to get it out of the way. I hope this helps. When i can i will do a video of the whole thing. Hope this helps. Every Zane is a treasure to appreciate. I love my 2 wheel hand grenade :-)
When Suzuki launched the 700cc ‘Intruder’ (80’s) we had no idea how to fit the battery, the build manuals were somewhere between Japan and Europe.
Even after contacting importer we were still no wiser as they didn’t actually know either.
Eventually, after dismantling most of bike, I found it was removed from underneath behind engine, but, the battery was taller than the space needed to fit it. (old style ‘wet’ lead acid) Things were a lot easier when sealed batteries came along although still ‘interesting’ sometimes when people rushing PDI fitted positive lead before battery was properly installed, (much sparks and cursing)
the TDM battery was stupidly inaccessible too lol
