Why not get a battery box? The bags look ugly.

It's not practical under the bonnet and personally I prefer a bag then a huge plastic box.

Neithers a bag that is supposed to be fire retardant. They're not. (not that I'd know.......)
My ex-missus had an Astra with the silly bag, and it was crap (and caught fire) and $180 bucks is a rip.
(Btw: you could just get a smaller battery if size is the issue)
Why can't he put the battery in the boot?
Or in the car? My VN has the battery in a box behind where the passenger seat will be.

But then you will have to fork out more for a special battery. I had the same problem with the R33 with it's battery mounted in the boot. Has to be properly sealed etc.
