I did a engine swap and put 04 engine in the 07. When I went to put the kick stand back on the bolts don't match. Anyone know the size on a 04 xb9r?

Also I noticed when I have it jumped to my car battery it barely turns over but when I start the car and jump it then it actually starts. I'm researching batteries but now a little afraid the battery I get might not have enough starting power.

Factory manual & schematic "pre-recall" show the below attachment bolts to secure sidestand mounting plate to engine case.

(2)Bolts, 1 1/2" Allen head alloy steel 5/16x18 (black)


Remove battery....charge @ 6amps for 15 minutes then load test. Doubt it will pass.

Battery: ETX-14 correct part number. Do NOT purchase "L" model as the terminals are reversed.
Should be 220CCA's or more.
Deka or its equivalent house-brands the best. Reasonably priced and typically produce 10% more CCA's than advertised.
