So after much searching for answers, I offer what I found on my own. The stock battery, 14ah #4011138, CAN be upgraded to a 30ah #4011124 (Polaris battery). The manual tells you that this is an option but doesn’t go into the details that are involved! This is what I found out: The stock battery has the positive terminal on the left (as seen from the drivers view). The upgrade has the positive terminal on the right. What needs to take place is this…. Unscrew the two torks screws from the shroud directly under the upper headlamp. This will expose the 10mm nut that holds the hold-down bracket for the battery. Remove the nut, the bracket (rubber slide included). Save the nut but put the bracket away for the next owner. Disconnect the battery leads. Remove battery. Under the battery you will find a black spacer…. Remove it and store with the aforementioned bracket. You will find a large positive lead that comes from the right side front, around the steering assembly and then forward along the left side of the battery. This lead needs to be routed back around the steering and forward so that it comes out along the right side of the new battery. Move all of your leads out towards the front or of to the sides as you find convenient. The Polaris battery I bought has two attachment points for each terminal. The battery lays horizontal (leak proof design) I used the terminals that faced the front, not the sky. Reassemble the leads, paying attention to +/-!!. There should only be one lead going across the top of the battery once you complete and this is not a battery lead but is part of the electronics. I understand that there is a larger bracket available. I saw it mentioned on one of the numerous posts about battery upgrades. A purest would install the larger bracket. In my amateur opinion the front cargo box fits so tightly against the new battery that it can’t move. One other note….. My battery did not come charged as the dealer claimed. Might want to charge it Before installing. Nothing worse than going through all that effort only to find you have to wait for the battery to charge before you can enjoy the fruits of your labor!
Hope this helps anyone that comes across this. The dealer parts counter was no help. The other threads left out a lot of pertinent details that really needed mentioning….. reroute the positive lead!!
