A long time ago, bikes had ignition points that might be closed when the ignition was turned on. This could cause burnt points That is no longer a problem.
I just recently changed the oil for the winter layover. But, I might want to attach the Nav V and check out a few settings. This would require turning the ignition switch ON, but not starting the engine. I would keep the switch on for maybe 15 minutes and the battery tender would remain connected.
I know this would cause the daytime running lights and taillight to light up and assume the tender would minimize the effect on the battery.
The real question is, are there any other bad things (akin to burning points) that might result? I don't believe this is covered in the owner's manual.
