Watch out with them, if it has a cdi unit on it, they go wrong constantly. The slightest bit of water and it stops working altogether.

My thumpstar used to have a battery just below the right hand rear panel...
Also, mine once ran like a bag of s**t,wouldn't rev hardly, coughed and spluttered. There was aload of water in the connecting pins for CDI... Cleaned out with WD40, then clipped it back together... I then put a balloon over it and siliconed and put a tie wrap on it.. Ran ok after this, no water can get to connections to short it...
