Look here: http://batterytender.com/
They do make a solar one if you have no outlet.

WOW, your dealer came, and just took it away? It's pretty obvious that your battery didn't have enough juice, hell 20 min on the tender would have probably been enough to get it to fire up. You would think that a good dealer would come out with a new battery and throw it in before hauling it off on a trailer, seems like and easy sell to me, new battery in, bike starts, boom you just sold a battery, what is the bike owner going to say, no I don't want to buy that take it out, can't see it.

Could be an awful long cord!
I was gunna say that if there is a std. light bulb socket in there,get one of those light bulb socket/plug adaptors.

Where i bought my bike they give you a free batt tender and give the bike a 50 point insp before you even get to see it, then they ride it for 50km to test it before handing over the fobs. To bad all dealers didn't do this. Small price to pay to have a happy cust. And haulin it away for a batt? Hope your luck turns around with your dealer. Enjoy your bike, break her in like they tell you 2. And have fun.

How times do you think that bike was started on the sales floor? How many times do you think that the battery was charged on the sales floor? Yep, thought so. Then the quick start in the garage just sucked the life out of the battery. That happens, sadly it does. So what did the dealer find?
