Trickle charger, battery life during the non riding weeks.
Gumbo:
I have a battery tender, never used it except for my 12yr old lawn tractor :stickpoke:
Bobcat Biker:
my 07 1800 still had the original battery...figured I should switch it out for the trip to Bandera...not taking chances.

Luckys Lover:
Two years ago, Lucky and I went out of state for a bit and left the bikes at home. When we returned after 78 days, my bike grunted a second and then fired up. Lucky's bike just spun like a champ until the carburetor refilled with gasoline and then it fired up. Still running on those batteries and no battery tenders.
I'd say if your battery is dead after 2 weeks, you gots issues.

Ditto on the tender. I plug in every time I park it.

That's not good for your battery. It's not needed unless you are not going to ride for extended times. 3-4 weeks might qualify for extended times but even then. 30 minute ride at higher RPMs will charge it back up enough.
I didn't ride for a month when I had my appendix removed and road glide started right up.
