The Beast lives again |
I had heard good things about the Ctek battery tenders and let the moths out of the wallet and got one finally. Putting the battery into the old R1 it fired right up after 2 years of not running once I remembered to put the choke on that is. How easily we forget once we get something a bit modern!. Now I will be able to run it monthly to keep it going. I will alternate the battery tender weekly or fortnightly between each bike to keep them in good running order.
A good investment, you won't regret it. My Gladius still is using the original battery from when we bought it in 2011 with no hiccups. I think because of the battery tender being on it periodically.
ReplyDeleteYeah definitely sounds like a good choice now, cheers Brandy
Deletelooks good
ReplyDeleteI have a similar one[different brand] and can keep all the 12v stuff around here charged up ready to go
I have exactly the same one and have used it for a few years charging and maintaining the battery in our camper trailer. It also has the ability to bring near buggered batteries back to life through one of its operating modes.
ReplyDeleteDo you use it on your bike as well or just the camping trailer?
DeleteThe bike gets that much use I don't need to put it on a battery tender! Just notched up 66K kilometers in 3.5 years of ownership.
ReplyDeleteWow thats a lot of kays, your not blogging much anymore I noticed for the amount of riding your doing? Any reason for that?
