Not mine. You don't get ANYTHING extra unless you PAY for it here. Reason number one why I buy my stuff from Zanotti's.

My 09 Ultra came with one, my 09 RKC did not and my 10 Limited did not. I did buy the 09 Ultra from a different dealer than the other two.

I havent puchased a Street Glide. Maybe next year. I'll let you know what I find if I buy one.

Harley does not put them on, the dealers do. If you want the actual charger it's extra. Cheaper if you get it from Batteries + or Walmart.

To do a quick hook up, if your battery tender came with alligator clips, look for the starter wire underneath the black rubber cover on the the solenoid. Pull the rubber cap off, ( be careful the stud is always HOT) and connect positive battery tender wire there and the negitive to ground. I use one of the allen bolts in the trans case. plug in your battery tender and your good to go.

I had to ask em' where I bought mine if they would, as I don't think that they was going to. They did, but I supplied my own tender. That wasn't thrown in...

The dealers do this a lot for bikes they have in stock; pretty common.
