i'm pretty damn sure that battery tenders kill batteries sooner than just leaving them and putting them on a charger in the spring if they're actually dead.


the battery in my bike has NEVER seen a charger and is 9 years old now, never missed a beat.

My 02 still has the original battery but it has been on a battery tender its whole life....
