- Making A Battery Tray - Honda GL650 Build In this video I take you through how I make the battery tray for the current GL650 build to fit the Anti Gravity 8 cell lithium ion battery I commonly use for these bikes. I placed it under the bike where the original exhaust crossover would go for a really clean look. The tray also has a provision to hold the modern starter solenoid I am using. I also show you how I make my battery cables using some 6g and solder. I hope you are enjoying the build and the videos!

Hi, you have a great way of approaching a task. Really fresh and I enjoy the workmanship. Cheers Richie.
Many thanks Rich and cheers back to you!
Awesome fab skills BJ, simple but clever design work
I appreciate it!
Good job! Building something that looks good, but also is easy to take apart or off so it can be serviced is the mark of a craftsman in my book. Keep up the good work. Honestly I was so focused on the bracket I didn't really notice any jumping around timewise. 👍
Perfect placement 👍🏼
And man that sure is a sharp looking tig back cap you have! 😉
Sure is! I know a guy!
Awesome videos, becoming slightly addicted to your channel 😎
Ha thank ya! Thats what I like to hear
Second! lol Great build. Gave me some ideas for additions to my pre-build battery box. Thanks as always!
Thank ya Tony!
Another awesome fabrication job, as always. keep em' coming.
Dang it thats clean man. You always pumping out quality videos and informative af. Respect from H-town.
Thank ya Gonz!
Love it BJ. Thanks for teaching me new stuff every video. I promise one day I will get back on the GL650.
My pleasure sir! I'm eagerly awaiting you getting back on it!
Looking good. Would you consider drilling a hole in the skidplate to avoid water accumulating there? Looks like water can get trapped there with the rocker you got going on. At least something I would consider here with the Dutch weather
Thank ya! I doubt this will ever get ridden in the rain but that wouldn't hurt to have a small drain just in case
Not sure if you’re still following some comments on these videos, but when you were working in your (older) shop here, how would you bend sheet metal? Did you have a brake setup or did you go old school torch and bend?
I actually show my process in my electronics tray fabrication videos. Mainly a small break but also vise and hammer
Great video. Is there any reason why you dont lay the battery flat? I look that you could save some space then...
Thank you. If it was flat the battery wouldn't fit in the spot I have it
Let me rephrase my previous reply. If it were flat it would be closer to the exhaust and has more exposure to heat even if its .0001%. I've done it that way before and wanted to try this way with this specific type solenoid layout.
Great stuff. Is it going to be painted black or florescent green? 🤔
Just black. It's already back on the bike for good!
Hi, another fantastic inspirational video, could you tell me what solenoid you are using please? I’m looking for ideas on a Eurosport
Thanks Paul! The solenoid is actually linked in the description. I always try to link all parts used in every video.
@@BrickHouseBuilds Thanks, that’s great, I now know where to look, every day’s a school day 👍
First!
first under first!
@@BrickHouseBuilds lol. Good video.
