They definitely give higher amp starting, crucial on the old Harley as the starter gear fails if it's not being pushed by a good strong battery. Never had to use an optimate on any of them either, though I'm not sure if they would need a dedicated motobatt charger if I did
Yeah I was told by my mechy that you need special chargers for motobatt batteries. Don't know why though? Do they have special terminals or something?
I have the Oxford solar optimiser. Has always done the job and best of all its free to use. Just stuck it on the side of the garage in view of the sun and the wire plugs into a little socket on the side of the bike. Think it was £30 so cheap enough too
