Well not me but a m8 just lost his for 3 month's  , he has a 08 softail standard  he asked me should he take the battery out or get a trickle charger for the whole 3 months or just use it every two weeks or so ?  i dont know ......whats the best thing to do ????

 

Thanks guys

keep riding it

If you are a good mate Taxi he'll let you ride it to keep it charged. If not, there are trickle chargers you can get (got one fitted for $75 by the stealer at the last service) that they use in the states during the "off" season. Supposedly dont cause any harm to be left on 24/7.

Problem with Fangios advice is that at the present you are probably more likely to be pulled up by the constabulary, no licence means deeper crap.

There are maintenance chargers that are smarted tha the average battery charger. C-Tec do a good job and 800 milliamp will do the job. Battery worl install and are just under $100.
3 months is not that long but get caught and do another 6 and it starts to add up.

Good luck

definately don't ride !!!  too much heat on at the moment . trickle charger's good , worth the investment , nice to know you can fire up whenever it takes your fancy no matter how long between rides !!!

Thank's guys for all ya info , i'll pass it on 2 him

Cheers
Taxi

When I left the states back in Sept last year my bike was not pluged in.
I was a little worried about the battery when it got here but it fired right up and that was 7 months just sitting there.
