removal of battery

Why are you struggling? Do you have a service manual?

Remove the seat and the battery cables (negative first) and carefully try to coax it up and out.
 
IM really struggling to remove the battery from my fat boy any ideas?

On a Sportster and, I think, a Dyna, it helps to remove the negative battery cable from its connection to the frame down near the starter. Never done it on a Softail.
 
i cant seem to get my screwdriver to the terminals ive tried lifting it up but it wont come up

You really need to get a manual. It sounds like the hold down strap is still in place. On the Sportster the bolt that holds the strap is hard to see unless I get on my hands and knees.

Get the manual. It will make your life much easier.
