Anyone install battery aft of baggage bay bulkhead? Do you find access
through D panel a real pain? What battery, what size wire did you run, was
starter performance acceptable?
Any pictures?
Any opinion if I should make choice to mount battery there now or wait
till build is complete?
I suspect my XS Monowheel will tend to be on the nose heavy side.
