The Importance of Battery Tenders!

If you’ve put your motorcycle to rest properly this winter, you’ll have invested in a battery tender to help maintain your batter life. These are truly one of the most important investments you can make for your bike – especially if you want it to start on the first go when riding season! Replacing a battery is an expensive process, but using a tender extends your battery life to it’s fullest!

Did you know you can easily loose 1% of charge PER DAY if your motorcycle isn’t being used? And that ideally your motorcycle battery should never fall below 60% charge while in storage!

Motorcycles are in their own class when it comes to battery tenders because their batteries are small and you don’t need a lot of complicated features to do the job. On the other hand, you are definitely looking for a unit that will get you through the entire storage time and also maintain the battery in good health for the whole period. Be sure to speak to our Parts or Service Team to get the best fit for your bike!

A few things to consider when Selecting your Battery Tender:

1. Battery Type: Not all battery tenders can charge all battery types. Pay attention to what type of motorcycle battery or batteries you will be maintaining and select the appropriate tender.

2.  Average Charge Time: The faster the charge capability usually the more expensive the tender. Since you are storing your bike for a season you can save some dollars and get a slower charging battery tender!

3. Auto Shut Off: Does it have an automatic shit off or go into a safer trickle charge mode? This is an important feature so you don’t have to keep checking on the tender!

Here’s a handy how-to showing how easy it can be to install a tender yourself at home!
