Cool Charging things up
Hi...I'm new to the HD Forum and glad to be a part of the group!
I just got a 2005 Dyna...question: after I start the bike up, generally speaking, how many minutes does the charging system take to replenish the drain to the battery from the starter?
Many thanks,
LRMars

Welcome from Virginia.....Depends probably on condition of battery. Mines 3-4 years old and 10 mile runs keep it going in summer. Winter sets more and I usually have the little 750 ma tender/charger on it. Especially if you have a alarm on it
