I've used the OEM charger for years. I am currently using it on my 2016 RT. I ride the bike into the garage turn the bike off, plug it into the oem socket, walk away; takes 1.5 seconds, the one I'm using now has lasted 4 years no problems, I highly recommend it.

Every time I see your super clean no clutter garage, I salute you. You don't have to remember where anything is...

To answer the question about should you put a gas stabilizer in if putting the bike up for 3 months I'd say yes, if much longer I'd tied to drain the tank dry. It would also be best if the fuel was ethanol free.

Garage too clean :)

Your buddy and newly elected BoD yankee beemer in said "clean" garage on his way through. I led him out on the one road in the area with a few decent sweepers. I think he had surgery Monday. My thoughts and prayers are with the ex-G-man.

Reece - thank you again for your and Rhonda's hospitality in October. You do have the cleanest garage around, and two BMWs in it besides.

FYI, I'm headed to Mass General Hospital this coming Monday. Should be interesting. Doc says I'll be back on the bike in March. See you at Fontana Dam (I hope).
 
The garage, particularly the neatly arranged fuel cans, exhibit perhaps just a touch of OCD.... a good characteristic in a pilot. Given a choice I always flew with the CW4 with the impeccable uniform; never with the LT who looked anxious to get in the air.

I finally saw the problem w/Reece's garage -- not enough toys! Makes it easy to keep the garage clean.
 
Some dealers install a pigtail so they have easy access to keep a bike's battery charged while it sits on the showroom floor.
