Hi. Hope you lot dont mind but ive just looked at that last battery box,and in my humble opinion,mine is the better design.With a box,its difficult to put a battery,relays and fuses in cuz you cant get your fingers in at the same time. Will put a picture on of my design and see what ya all think. At the moment there is only 1 bid on mine at 4.99 and 3 quid p+p.

tis a fine one hornet for sure, took my fuel tanks in today for welding so when i mount the cylindrical low one i can get a proper measurement for what room i have.
am thinking  now of a longbox, both sides of propshaft on a base plate then shaped round prop,could have battery and electrics one side and a bit of a tool box otherside. look like one long box with middle shaped round prop and the rear facing panel drops down to give full access [so solid side facing weather]. would help stiffen frame too with out looking like a after thought and be removeable by bolting to chassis rails.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, if ya know what i mean..

Yeah,that was a one off. My project is using a diversion 600 engine,and the battery is quite big on those bikes.The box thats on ebay was a little to small so i made myself  a newer bigger one. I was going to throw that one away,then at the last minute thought i,ll stick it on ebay and see how it goes.
If when your ready for your battery box,try and send me a drawing with all the dimensions on and i can see if i can knock one up for ya.

not got anywhere near as much room for battery as i hoped, handbrake plate will be rear footrest and matches one going on other side that will have handbrake on it and be a footrest.

carb looks miles away from tank but its quite a snug fit, barley enough room for throttle cable.
