RE: 07's with security problems???
Mine came with a dealer supplied battery tender back in '03... I still have the original 4 year old battery in the thing. That's the longest a 'cycle battery has ever lasted me.
That 3 prong connector looks like it'll last about 5 connect/disconnect cycles before it'll be impossible to use, whatever that third connector is for....

I beg to differ, because that is NOT Stock HD Equipment........
What brand of Tender is that????
FWIW, I am an HD Tech..... Around here, that and $0.75 I can get a cup of coffee at Sheetz...

I picked up my new '07 Street Glide about 4 hours ago and received a battery tender and installed harness without any explanation. The dealer also gave me a couple of T-shirts. I just figured that it was a nice "gift" after spending 20K.

I have checked... Not Battery Tender brand, nor Optima, Schauer, Battery Minder, Motion Pro.....
You are going to have to ask your dealer which brand or system that is......
It is DEFINITELY NOT a Battery Tender interlink plug that you have there....

Shovelhead Bob,
I finally found the answer.
This is a quote from HD part No 99869-04
"The full 5A output current is available when used with 3-pin type harnesses and 2-pin charging harnesses are limited to 2.5A."
THe MOCO is now puting the 3 pin pigtail on some new 07 Models. This Battery tender costs $130. Can you tell me if its that much better than the cheap HD tender?
