So my oem was at 11.9V not enough to start the engine. These 2017 F800GS have a large relay connecter with tubes wires left hand right on top of the battery clamp. The clamp wont lift away ( have removed the 2 screws) until you move the mentioned cabling atop. Not easy to see hoe this is done, utubing shows older bikes dont have as much stuff on the bracket so not the same as 2017. Anyway charged the oem in situ to 12.5 started ok have put it back together and will keep the lithium until I figure how to get the clamp off.
