bike developed a bad misfire while i was rideing a rough trail it then stopped.got of to find the battery strap had broken battery had fallen out of holder and was hanging by the leads until the negitive lead broke.I then spoke to the dealer and its a fault with the 06 800.The 07 strap is different i recomend a cable tie around the battery

 

I had my negative disconnect down a trail, had to rig it to get back to the pickup.

 

This is not uncommon. I took a couple of flat straps and went laterally around the battery, crossed my fingers.

 

Kind of nice to know that. I watched my dealer hook my battery up, and although its up in a nice little spot, the bottom of the battery box doesn't have a very tall lip and I can see how the battery could get out. The battery strap hooks up in the front of the battery pretty far back up in there and my dealer was having some trouble getting it to hook up. There's not alot of room to get your hand back in there. I'll just have to see how things go.
