Curt,
getting to the battery on my BMW is a pain also (it's up under the
tank), so i use a set of cables that i connected to the battery and
terminated in a large capped Anderson connector back under the seat
where it's more readily accessible. i carry a set of jumper cables that
are terminated on one end to the same Anderson connector, and the
combination has made jump starting and charging chores much easier. (the
alternator on the GS is ridiculously huge; ~6-700W. we've started all
kinds of things with those bikes, much to the surprise of many stranded
motorists.)
BMW got smarter on later production units of my same model, and
actually put a positive battery post out on the side of the engine where
it could be gotten to more easily...
cheers!
