Battery Tender

I'm looking at buying a battery tender for my bike as I've parked my ride for the winter and am trying to decide what is the best Battery tender to get the job done. Anybody have any suggestions?

I've had the full sizes, but now I use the junior it gets the job done.

I use the full size with harness doubles as a power point.

RE: Battery Tender

I have a 1.25 amp from Deltran and a .75 amp Jr. Either one is sufficient. Put a pigtail on your bike, plug in the charger when you are done riding and walk away. It's that simple. They are excellent for winter storage. For extreme cold I would suggest bring the battery inside and keep it charged in the house.

RE: Battery Tender

Deltran Jr. - best deal I've seen is from Eastern Performance Cycles. Have mine plugged in now. Hope your battery comes out of the bike easier than mine did. Took a while, but I have perfected the technique.
