Battery are the best thing ever invented, well worth the money. The keep your battery at perfect charge all the time. Even if it's in storage forever.

Sorry about that, I meant to say Battery Tenders.

I always charge the battery on the bike with the battery tender and the permanant pigtail connectors that come with it .Fast,reliable and goof proof.
