Not a problem...Well, sort of...

First remove the left mirror(just pull out on it. then remove the two wires on it that power the signal. remove both seats. An Allen wrnch will pull off the 10 to 12 screws on your left side farings, you will also have to take the cover off of your pull out handle that helps you get it on the centerstand. That comes off easily by turning the two screws at the top of it 45 degrees(or until you feel it loosen). now, go to the airbox right under the drivers seat, and remove the two Phillips head screws on the top of it. then you see the plastic pipe that runs to it from the left side of the engine, at the front of it there is an Allen screw (silver) that holds it in place. Remove it. now you need to lift the top cover of the airbox off, and where the pipe connects to it, lift it out of the slot and remove. Nows the tricky part. the battery is tucked in the pretty tight , so wiggle it out of the left side of your bike. It will come out, just pull. Now you will have the battery hanging off the left side of the bike- that's as far as she goes-just unhook the terminals.

You will have to remove the seat. Remove the left mirror. Remove the entire left fairing. The battery is under the cover between your legs. When you have the left fairing off you can see the battery. You WILL have to get the correct battery size since the tray is a certain size. Reverse what yo had to do to get to the battery.

Yes, as long as you get the right battery so that it is an identical fit. Either get a BMW battery, or an Interstate MPT-H6. You will have to plug one of the vents on the interstate battery, and use the vent hose from your original BMW battery.

BMW's have auto-locks a little different from other cars, if your battery is dead, the doors won't open. To change the battery, you need to open the trunk, this is where the battery is located. You will see a panel with some screws, you need to remove that and underneath is the battery.
