The plastic part I will try but the missing four screws and  the two in the middle. Looks like a moonlighther did the job?

After a closer look I noticed that I have to remove the shel on both sides to loosen the bottom and place it right. It's impossible to place a second battery now.

My TC battery box was similar, though not as bad.  I had to release all four sides and then refit as best as I could.  It's still not 100% but the two batteries fit now.

I don't think there are any other screws missing, the four recesses are where the feet of the battery sit when it's fitted.  I assume the holes are to allow any moisture to drain out.

I drop it later this week by the dealer to fix it but in the meantime I did find another problem... The parts near the headlight are placed backwards, hope the picture says enough the BW picture is how it should  be

Hi Targaryen, bought it at the only dealer in NL Lasouris.

Take it back to the dealer and let them finish it properly. You are still under warranty, correct?

I would advise you, since you are in the battery compartment to place a foamy insulator between the battery and the back of this box. When you go through road bumps the battery hits the metal back and it sounds bad.  Just lift the battery and you will understand.

Regards people and have nice rides.

I'd bring back to your dealer and raise the questions as to why your bike seems to have been dismantled before and why?.  It shouldn't be that way if it's a new bike (or pre-owned)
