You need to remove bottom. There's some kind of spacer or stand on the bottom, that makes it not fit into the space on a '84 700SC. It's held onto the battery with some double sticky tape. Once I removed it, the battery is the same height as the Yuasa. It works like a charm! I have one for my Violet.
