My battery is dead and I can't seem to find it.  I have a 2003 cbr 600rr.  Is it under the seat? I'm not finding the bolts to remove the seat if it is.

apparently you haven't looked for more than 10 seconds... they are under the foam at the back of the seat. you'll need a 5mm allen wrench.

find out why your battery is dead though. 2003/2004 CBR600RRs have a poor Voltage Rectifier/Regulator mounting design. they over heat durring slow speed high ambiant temperature riding and are very failure prone on city ridden RRs.

Dont feel bad.. not all of us are expert mechanics... peel up the rear outside corners of your seat.. the bolts are underneath and then slide the seat up and back. Before you tear your bike apart and check all of the electrical, take the battery down and have it checked first. Those small batteries dont last forever.. Good Luck...
