Recommended Posts

Anyone with a trick as to how to hold or secure the Nut for each terminal without losing it...... ??

Perhaps try threading the bolts into the nuts before placing the battery into the bike, to retain the nuts.  After inserting the battery, remove the bolts to attach the cables and the nuts should be captured by the terminals, then reattach the cables.  You'll have to feel for the nuts a bit, or perhaps raise them if the bolts are short.

Try a dab of Vaseline (petroleum jelly) on the nut to hold it in place.  Been using this trick for the past 45 years, FWIW.
