Bob and Mark install a Power Commander to custom map this Harley after a custom exhaust and air intake. They remove the battery and remove the battery box to properly install the Power Commander. Take your time and only cut the tie wraps that you have to. They have to level the relay box to install this PC since this model has a custom rear fender, check your model and install instructions. Battery back in and they use a little dielectric grease to install the PC plug into the ECM and back to the factory harness. Once the PC is in place they download a map to it for the custom set up from the computer.

5:11Harley Sportster Battery Removal & Seat Removal
In this quick demonstration of the Harley Sportster battery removal, you’ll learn how to remove your bike’s seat and side cover so you can check on the condition of your battery and its operating components. It is strongly recommended that you remove the negative cable of the battery first and replace it last when servicing your bike. If you remove the positive cable first, you risk causing a dangerous spark if the battery comes in contact with your bike’s frame. Bob has been dealing with these batteries for years and removes the neg from the battery.
