Default Battery Tender

I'm looking at buying a battery tender for my bike as I've parked my ride for the winter and am trying to decide what is the best Battery tender to get the job done. Anybody have any suggestions?

I've had the full sizes, but now I use the junior it gets the job done.

I use the full size with harness doubles as a power point.

I have a 1.25 amp from Deltran and a .75 amp Jr. Either one is sufficient. Put a pigtail on your bike, plug in the charger when you are done riding and walk away. It's that simple. They are excellent for winter storage. For extreme cold I would suggest bring the battery inside and keep it charged in the house.

Deltran Jr. - best deal I've seen is from Eastern Performance Cycles. Have mine plugged in now. Hope your battery comes out of the bike easier than mine did. Took a while, but I have perfected the technique.

I have three Battery Tenders that I use in other applications. I use the Junior on the sickle in the winter. I don't remove the battery from the bike cuz I like to ride if it gets less cold out.

I have the Jr. also, works great for both my EG as well as my jetski (spends more time on the jetski as I dont' take that out very often!)

I have a Battery Tender Jr and it performs very well. Another to consider is Battery Minder.
