Thanks Russ and Bert (who pmailed me a similar suggestion).
I have taken good precautions to avoid such a scenario. Both the battery
terminals have nice thick rubber caps AND I always place a thick rubber mat
over the battery. This also prevents any acidic vapours from eating away the
seat frame/springs.
The rear seat is nice n firm and is hardly ever used as I very rarely
carry passengers.
