Battery Tender question.

[lankeeyankee]

From memory I got it at WalMart. It's been a few years ago. If you're coming to the Bash I might try to find it. I've never used it.

Thanks for the offer .. Times are tight but I think I can swing 25 bucks to get Suzi a charger. Depending on the weather forcast I am sure I will ride out since its 3 hours away

I remember not having one, then needing the bike for a ride, finding out battery was dead, spending 2 hours finding over priced tender at Cycle Gear, then waiting till the next day for the solid green light to ride. I'd recommend every bike owner have one!

You can jumpstart a bike just like a car.
The bike would've recharged the battery too, since the battery tender was able to.
Good to know after the fact

Donn,
I got a few extra of the smaller float chargers like below, I don't think their Battery Tender brand but your welcome to 1 if you'd like it.
Battery Tender Junior 6V @ 0.75A - Motorcycle - Batterytender.com

Anyhow I use the Shumacher 6/12 1.5 brand below and just pick them up from Advanced Auto, I think Auto Zone carries them also but are usually more money. I think I just saw them on sale at advanced for $25 I believe.

They also have this one which is only 1amp and you have to select 6 or 12 volt only differences and there only like $24 regular price.

I put the quick pig tails on my vehicles too, and that way if there not gonna be driven for a while I'll just plug in them to a tender and then you don't have to worry about clickety click when you do want to drive it.
