What broke, was it the lip on the coolant reservoir? Year One makes a battery strap that will work perfect, I think the part number is BHFBLK, and it's under $20.

Moroso, eh? They never used to check my battery.

Anyhow, that part is not hard to replace. It involves changing out the entire resevoir if I recall, because it's one big piece of plastic (resevoir, lip, etc.). Simple to replace. An extra bungie chord always helps too.
