Default Routing Battery Charging Harness

Anybody have success on routing the HD battery charging harness for easy access on an 07 wide glide or similar as the terminals are starboard facing out? It doesn't appear flipping the battery around (so terms face inward) is an option....I could be wrong though.

I've searched the forum and don't see the routing issue addressed. Any direction would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I've got a battery tender jr on my Fatboy. Pretty simple install across positive(+) and negative(-) battery terminals. Just make sure there is no interference with those terminals when you remount seat and you'll be ok. I routed my connector on right side just past oil tank.

Thanks for the response ACCHD. Yeah, it's a simple connection that I was able to do, but the routing of the pigtail is problematic in there is no room to route it out the battery case once the cover is installed. One solution I thought of is to drill out the side of the battery housing so I can go out the left side of the bike with the pigtail. I'm not sure if the Fat Boy is configured the same as the Wide Glide.
