The following excerpt is from the chassis section of this Honda SuperHawk & Scrambler Motorcycle Restoration Reference Guide.
Engine vibration will take its toll in several areas of the chassis. The battery box is one such area. When the battery is not properly secured, it will dance around in response to various engine vibration periods. This will: loosen the connections; cause damage to the battery plates; or loosen the filler plugs, which allows battery acid to drip onto the frame. The acid corrosion attacks the battery box welds and the rear fender mounting tabs, which are often broken just from vibration.
