Battery box is thick steel, professionally packed and is the perfect addition to my 95 shadow 600 build. I am keeping the rear shock right now but chopped the frame. I wanted a battery box that was heavy duty and could be tucked away. It was a little bit larger than the intended location on the bike but I just ground the back of the box down about 1/16th of an inch and a small loop on the frame where the rear support for the shock comes down to the swingarm. Now it fits like a glove. Highly recommend you get one of these especially while they are on sale for $30. You can't beat that price or the quality. TJBC delivers yet again!
Ordered a chonky steel box, received a chonky steel box. It's gonna need a bit of pre-fab for a snug fit but I'm no stranger to an angle grinder. Much better than the ugly coolant tank that used to be down there!
Wish it was a tad bit smaller but works !
This product is more than I expected.
When i got the box it wasnt a perfect fit ( mostly as tolerance is tight in this spot with such thick ass material). so i used a 3" angle grinder and took off 1/16 from the bottom weld of the shock mount and the opposing outer top edge of box. just enough to get it in but still snug .
wish i could post pic but im sure youll figure it out. just spot weld on corners and run one bead along where shock mount arm contacts box , paint and done . was sweating it at first but ive spent more time polishing a single riser .
