You can simply fit the YT-12 (as used on the later 998 and 748 bikes) and move the cables around.
The relays will now fit inside the battery holder instead of outside!
Ducati added a battery tray spacer - I will find the part number - but these don't come up for sale very often. Until I found one I simply used cable ties and straps to keep the battery in place properly!
It's an easy job to do and saves a lot of weight over the YT-16.
TBH the weight you save going from YT-16 to YT12 is bigger than getting an AGM YT-16 battery, and it saves money too!

I'd rather die peacefully in my sleep like my Grandfather,
than screaming in terror like his passengers.- Jim Harkins
