Thank you for taking those pics and showing them. That battery is on the top of my list for a power source. I now have a good idea of the size o and what I could do with it... Ill probably end up going a similar route. I plan on having my seat raised about an inch or so and trying to "tuck" the battery and fuse box in the seat pan somehow while maintaining decent ventilation.

If you want any pictures of anything specific just ask! If you made your seat pan out of fiberglass you could make a pocket in the bottom to hold the battery and fuse box. That would keep them up above the frame and hidden.
It's an Antigravity 4 cell. Very compact and lightweight. I like the low-long stance of your bike, it would look really cool with a brat-style seat!

What length are this shocks? I was thinking about getting the shortest ones I could but now I'm thinking the stock ones might work.

Seat pan! Needs a little trimmed off the sides but otherwise came out great.

Drop that question and an intro about yourself and your bike in the clubhouse section of the forum.
