Actually this was a pretty straightforward project. All you really need is a sawzall w/ a few blades and a new nut and bolt to hold your new battery tray in place. I thought I would just have to cut the batter try in order for it to fit but I actually had to cut out a piece of the lower fender to clear the tank.
Battery Tray:

after seeing it in person, that is amazing. A side pic by the fender where you fill it would probably get you the OOOO's and AAAAhh's

Good cosmetic mod to unclutter the engine bay.
