Default Battery tender

I have a softtail 2010 with a genuine HD battery tender connector. The thing is I have two non HD tenders and I wonder if it would harm the battery not to use the original tender as the pins are somewhat different. I have a CTEK Mxs 3.8 and a Oxford Oximizer 888. would not want to buy another.

They are battery tenders so you won't have a problem. Just replace the connector to the battery that is designed to work with your tender.
