Optimate 4. Thumbs Up

It comes with a set of fly leads that you can permanently attach to your battery terminals allowing the battery to be charged in situ with minimum fuss and effort. It will also maintain a battery if the bike is left standing with the optimate connected for any length of time and can recover failing batteries.

I'd recommend this one here. After my optimate 4 broke, I spent some time considering what would be the best value for my money in terms of getting a quality charger.

Another recommendation here for the CTEK, Has been faultless during 3 years of continuous use on car and bike batteries.
