Mine have sockets on all four corners to which you attach two terminals with Allen screws (Provided), so yes, you can swap the terminals around depending whether you use the front sockets or the back ones.

Yes I think that is their 'Quadflex Technolgy' but my 900's 16Ah (20Ah?) Motobatt didn't come with it nor did the two 9Ah ones I bought for my race bike and if you look at their spec sheet for the fitment you will see it only has two terminals instead of the four the actual 'Quadflex' batteries apparently have.

Well going by Motobatt's online battery selector this battery is the correct one for my bike - only two terminals.
Bonus is it matches the colour of my bike,

That's what I've got in the Monster and 916, never fails to start - unlike the old Yuasa in the 916 which would struggle after a couple of weeks use if not kept on trickle charge.

As for the 4 post, I have a 32ah Motobatt on the Guzzi that has 4 terminals to allow more versatility in fitting and they also make that one in black.
