Battery removel for a 2004 suzuki 800 intruder

The rectifier on a 2001 Suzuki Intruder 800 is typically located near the battery, under the seat. It is usually attached to a bracket or secured with screws to the motorcycle's frame.
To locate the rectifier, you may need to remove the seat and possibly the side panels. Once you have access to the battery, follow the wires that are connected to it. The rectifier should be mounted nearby and have wires connected to it as well.
If you're having trouble locating the rectifier or need further assistance, I would recommend referring to the motorcycle's owner's manual or consulting with a qualified motorcycle mechanic.

Remove the seat to access the battery.

1st, remove the passenger pillion seat.
2nd, remove the driver seat

there are 2 bolts under the front area of the forward seat each side remove the 2 bolts lift the seat and forward to remove,then you will see 2 more bolts for the rear seat remove them slide the seat forward and remove it.

Normally it's found under the driver seat

Bend the rear sent in the middle while pushing it forward, the back tabs will come loose so you can lift the seat up.

Some of these have a turn on the ignition key that is just before the Acc that triggers a lock so the seat can be removed.

It has a bolt underneath the seat material at the rear far end of it.You must lift it to see it.It should be in the middle of the seat's width.

It is not under the seat! It is under the engine,and it is kinda a pain in the *** to get to..altho,most batteries on bikes are located under the seat,the suzuki intruder is not!

I know for the models till 2002 where the battery is located in front of the rear wheel.

Place the bike on her side stand
remove the negative battery lead at the left side, just below the transmission tube ( cone ) 10mm socket wrench
On the right side remove the security cap on the positive lead ( cross screwdriver ), then remove the positive lead.
The battery is hold in place with a 'floor plate'. remove both bolts of the floorplate ( on each side ) while holding the palte into place.
gently lower the plate and the battery.

I hope the 2004 model has the same assembly!

Hi ...... Find where the battery is, under the seat or behind a side panel. Disconnect the black (negative lead usually with a 10mm spanner then disconect the red (positive) lead. The battery will be held in place with a 'rubber' strap or a bracket and depending on type of battery there may be a vent hose from the battery to the lower half of the bike, this just pulls off and remains in place until you replace the battery. Installation is reverse except you connect red (positive) first.
Let us know how you get on.
