The battery is under the saddle. You will have to remove the rear saddle (if equipped) as well as the front saddle to get at the battery. The tools to accomplish this are provided in the tool kit that came with the bike.
It's in a box on the front of the bike located under the oil cooler (looks like a mini radiator and has two hoses going to it). If you look right under that cooler you should see a metal plate with ribs on it (either 3 or 4 ribs) that's the front plate. Just above that is a plastic lid to the battery box.
The battery cables are routed behind the box. Once you get the lid off (two screws one on either side) you should see the indents for the cables in the lid. The battery terminals face the rear of the bike.
Removing the two bolts on either side of the bike, in front of the rear wheel will open the battery box door (You must look under the bike and locate the battery box). Locate the battery terminal bolts on either side of the frame. Remove the positive side first. The battery should then slide down from the box. Make sure you glue the nuts to the new battery terminal. Put the positive terminal back on the battery first to avoid a short when installing the new battery.
It is not under the seat! It is under the engine,and it is kinda a pain in the *** to get to..altho,most batteries on bikes are located under the seat,the suzuki intruder is not!
Take the battery out of the bike and hook it to a charger. Make sure it is properly charged and take it to a battery store to have a load test performed. From your description, it sounds like the battery is shot and needs replaced.
Th battey on these suck! It is located underneathe the bike in the center. There is 1 bolt on each side you need to take off. Then while holding the cover whicj is on a hinge, open it slowly and the battery should come straight down. ( Hint,,, I pull my back tire on a 2 x 6 to raise the bike up a little. ) now you can access the battery cable bolts. Take then both out being carful not to short the red/positve against anything when moving the battery around trying to get to the bolts. Assemle the same way.
