Battery tender pigtail
Someone was telling me recently that they had a "pigtail" installed so that a battery tender could be plugged into a little hanging out of the way coupling without having to remove the seat to expose the battery.
Who knows about these things? Not me. Any and all information appreciated.

Run wires directly to the battery (use Loc-Tite). To make a quick connect / disconnect you can solder wires to a banana jack and mount it some were out of sight. Use an additional banana jack on the Battery Tender leads.

If you buy a "Battery Tender", it'll actuall come with a pigtail (with waterproof cap). My wife's bike ('06 Sportster) had a pigtail from the dealer. I recently purchased a Battery Tender and installed the pigtail on my bike...Very convenient.
