Default Battery chargers

What battery chargers/maintainers fit the plug that came pre-installed on my 06?
Is there any off brands that will fit the plug or am I limited to the HD only units?
Thanks

I had a Sears that I think had a similar but different plug. Instead of putting a custom plug on the bike, I bought the H-D one for $20odd and gave the Sears to my bro for his car. When he sold the car, he passed it on to our bud Andy for his metric.

I'm going to feel real stupid after installing a Battery Tender set-up, If your saying that the '06 comes with a factory plug somewhere?
If so where is it?

The wire harness that attaches to your battery terminals is $7.95 from the HD dealer.
some dealers install them for free on new bikes, some don't
on my last 2 Harleys one dealer had it already on when I picked up my new bike
the next dealer did not have one on when I picked up my new bike

any company that "battery tender" manufactures will fit....also be advised there are different harnesses
one has 3 wires one that I know of has 2 wires....the 3 wire will work with the battery tender also
I don't know the different applications for the 2 & 3 wire setup...check with your HD parts guy

I know there will be other forum guys that know why the 2 different harnesses are used

I bought the same Battery Tender for $19.95 on sale at a Honda dealer that was $39.95 at my HD store. Fits the dealer installed plug perfectly.

KeithB,

That charger you got from Wal-Mart that fits the dealer installed 3 hole plug, do you happen to have a part number.
I checked the Wal-Mart web site with no luck.
That is one store I really like to avoid the just going to look. I like to go in and get what I went in for and get out quick. [:@]
