No, as it would be virtually touching the rocker cover and because the frame rails drop down it would also sit on the intake manifold.

I'm going to move it back by 15mm (in line with the vertical rail below) this gives space for an air filter on the rear carb and, with the battery raised a few mm, clears the rocker cover whilst still fitting under the tank. This is based on a standard sized battery, just need to get some suitable tube as the cut-out piece is too short.

Then need to devise somewhere to fit the under-tank stuff such as ignition module & coils as the rear filter will sit up against the battery, but there is plenty of space in front of the carbs.
