Title: 1990 3cv battery box
Post by: ELIMINATOR on August 29, 2017, 12:30:39 PM
I removed this to give me access to remove the shock absorber.

I pulled it from the bike with other part of the assembly attached, this is on the left hand side when sitting on the bike.

Once I had the shock off, I briefly looked at how it fitted and tried for a few minutes................looks obvious, but I couldn't get it back together, even after I had separated the two parts. :Facepalm:

I'm in the process of fitting the Nitron shock back on the bike, thought I'd preempt my inability to get this assembly back on the bike by asking beforehand.  :good2:

Are you asking how to install the battery box? Drop into place, ensure the plastic pin on the bottom engages the rubber grommet, install the 2 small bolts (one on each side.) Done.

Is that what you're asking?

Not the box as such. More where the "flap"  that bolts onto the side of the battery box locates. In hindsight, it should be obvious once I put the battery box back in, then the flap location should be clear.  :Facepalm:
