I may be wrong, didn't all 2014 touring models come with a Battery Tender cable under
the left side cover ?

Andy always turn the ignition off after you hit the kill switch, every time you park your
Bike. Also look for the Battery Tender under the left side cover, if it is there route it so
you can use it.

Every time I park my Bike in the garage I turn off the ignition switch, and plug in the
Battery Tender to the cable that the factory put on the Bike. Some of us riders have had
batteries last 7, or 8, years using a Battery Tender.

Lastly I wish you well on your battle with Cancer, so you can get out there and ride that
Road King. Please keep us posted on your fight with the big C.

 

Yes I have, not so sure about Andy though.

 

Ha

If I read that correctly
, your bike battery drains when you don't turn off your ignition switch after pressing the kill switch on the handlebar.

Well what did you think was going to happen? I did the same thing and my battery died too. Your lights are still on regardless the kill switch is on or off.

 

Lots of good advice here. I've NEVER used the kill switch for that reason. Too easy to forget. I just hope Harley doesn't have to add every gadget known to man to prevent people from doing stupid things. My lawn tractor has way too many, let alone a motorcycle.
