Side note, on the 2013 there is an additional screw in the front right panel entirely blocked by the lower dashboard. As a result, the lower dash needs to be removed. Beginning in 2014 removing the lower dash was no longer necessary.
any video describing the full process of removing/replacing a battery on a 2013 FJR1300?
No need to remove battery, just rig the battery lead that comes with your favourite battery maintenance charger, comes with a nice waterproof cap, When you need to charge your battery just plug the charger in! I do it on all my bikes, even my little old Honda 90 Cub, the lead lives on top of the fuel tank under the seat. In fact I do it on my cars too, most cigarette lighter sockets are 'live' so I plug in there.
Where I was parking the bike at the time (sold over 5 years ago) I didn’t want to trip over the cable.
Makes no sense to remove the battery... just buy a "smart" tender and connect the terminals !
1) it was connected to a Battery Tender after it was removed (just like the batteries for all my other bikes). 2) The bike was parked in the middle of my garage and I didn’t want to trip over the cord all winter. So while it may not make sense to YOU it made plenty of sense to me.
Also useful for 2nd hand FJR owners with no manual on where the battery is located (most traditionally look under the seat) and how to remove it to place a fresh one.
Realy simple in fact 👍
Thanks from France

It's a little more tricky on the older models.
I have a C-Tek Adapter installed on bikes battery so i just had to plug the C-Tek Battery Charger to it without taking it out of the bike. Also have a set of Powerlet Motorsport Jumper Cables connected to it in case i had to jump some one or needed a jump.
Never tried one of those but heard good things about them.
They both work great. The jumper cables are real heavy duty and have come in handy on several occasions ......www.amazon.com/Powerlet-PKT-104-Powersport-Jumper-Cables/dp/B00LB49SDY
Perfect, thank you.
Your battery must be smaller. On my 2014 FJR, following your instructions, I could still not remove the battery. The front part of the battery on the left corner hits the front part of the plastic on the bike--the whole corner of it. I tried to wiggle and move it in all ways but can't clear. Looks like I have to remove additional parts of the bike to clear it.
This is for a second gen
@@2WR Yes, I figured that out, and figured out how to remove the battery from mine. Thanks.
I need the cover that you removed. What is it called so i can order one please?
What year is your FJR? On my 2014, there are two fasteners on the inside -- one near the front and one near the rear.
The bike in the video is a Gen II (2007 model).
Thanks for the video
Very helpful, thanks
What year is your FJR1300 please?
2006 model
Gen2
Thanks I actually had the wrong panel duuuh!
This doesn't work for Gen 3. For that, you have to remove the instrument bezel in order to be able to lift the battery up and out.
I have a '19 and couldn't do it like this video shows..now I know..Is it difficult to remove the instrument bezel?

The owner at my local dealership recommended NOT leaving a battery hooked to a battery tender all the time. He said it would constantly keep the battery at full charge and cause it to dry out. He'll rotate the tender around to different bikes and let 'em charge for 14 hours or so @ once a month.
I disagree. Battery Tenders have built in microprocessor controls that automatically shut off when your battery reaches full charge. Once full charged it enters float-voltage mode which monitors and maintains the voltage for as long as it's hooked up.
