Try Banbury Trailers.
They sell them individually at about £15 inc vat
Used a pair of 12" ones on the back of Deliverance. Widened and shortened.  Radius a nice close fit on 205 50 15
Should imagine 14" would do for front, just ask them the radius.

That works then! Full sized car battery too, rather than the bike sized one I had to use. Looks good.

Tucked away nicely Smiley Finding room for a good size battery is always going to be difficult.
Can you still get the engine and box out easily.

yeh because my rad is infront of the engine instead of outside the frame if the rad is removed the engine goes foward quite a bit and then out of the left side of the frame

Looking good. Had you thought of some infill panels under seat to hide battery? Could also be used to mount a switch of some description?

I agree with Andy,fits in there nice and snug. I also like the suggested infill panel.Just a thought..make sure the battery terminals are well insulated from those overhead bits of box!

hope to do just that Pete to mount the ignition switch and maybe hazard switch

will probably end up with some sort of plastic cover over it,either over the + or maybe the whole thing

time for the fun and games wiring to begin

the looms from the handle bar switches were too short so had to be extended,soldered and covered with heat shrink. each one was joined in a different place to avoid a wide spot in the loom
