Default Warrior battery seems to be shorting out somewhere

I put a new battery in the Warrior a few weeks back and once in a while it refuses to start (won't even turn over) until I pull the seat and wiggle the battery around. The terminals are both on nice and tight and I cleaned them before connecting the new battery. Today I was out and stalled, then tried to start it and I got a buzzing sound from the battery. I pulled the seat and it looked like the ground terminal was arcing to the frame.

Any ideas what's causing these issues?

its grounding it self out probually, you need to re wrap the wires to make sure there is no metal to metal contact, you can just simply re wrap it with electrical tape or you can buy a new wire from autozone,advanced,walmart or something, but most likely youll be fine as long as you wrap it and make sure either pos or neg is in good condition.
