2011 Jay Feather sport 197 dual battery setup

Hello,
I'm thinking of installing a second battery on my 2011 Jay Feather Sport 197
but looks like there is no room for it. the way it is setup currently is the battery is in the front and propane tank is in the back.
anybody out there was able to some how retrofit the setup and install a second battery?

You may be able to move the propane tank up front tight to the jack and move the battery tray in back of the tank. A welding shop should be able to do this for you. Just make sure you have enough hose to reach the propane tanks after it's relocated. Just a thought.

that's a thought, probably will call some dealers to find out how much something like this would cost. thanks.

Hi Lennyl,
It's been a long time when you were researching the dual battery on sport 197 but did it work? If yes, what did you do?
Thanks,
