battery

Is it advisable to store spyder in winter without battery?

There is no power in storage unit

Out

I would recommend taking it out since you can't keep it on a charger. Low current draw and the cold will ruin the battery quick without a charger.

I agree with Steve. And by taking it out to a power source you can hook it up to a maintainer.

I wouldn't worry about it. I bought my '10 RTs in March of '10 and traded it off in March of '14. It had never been on a charger or maintainer in that time period and was working when I traded it off. JME

:agree: This DOES seem like the time of year, when this argument is rendered moot. :dontknow:

Putting the battery on a maintainer is probably much better...



...Regardless of if it's still in the bike, or not! :thumbup:

Apart from thinking about this during the summer, I would remove the battery and bring it in where you can use a battery tender to keep it well charged. Yes it might be fine without the tender but you will be keeping the battery in tip-top condition for a longer battery life.
