Hate to say it but I would be embarrassed for anyone to see that battery wiring, it looks like an abortion. All those connections at the battery and the dirty connections not to mention the crimp connectors. You have any electrical issues?

Nah, I sure don't, everything runs just as it should, that's why the seat is good for covering it up. Thanks for the input tho.
I may take it down this winter and put correct solder and shrink tube connections on.
It's kinda how it was when I bought it used. I think that the PO knew nothing about wrenching.
