    The chargers come with the cord from the battery. Just picked up another trickle charger for my Springer and it came with one.

    Tried to put the Battery Charger on my wifes Nightster yesterday.
    Man please they got the battery burried up in there.
    I will wait and save my money and git a motorcycle charger that I can put leads on and use quick connect to hook it up to charge it.

    If you ride in an area that has good riding weather most year around, than I would say that is true. My wife don't ride enough even when the weather is good so we keep a trickle charger on her bike.

    Bought my wife a Nighster in August while HD has the special on ride for a year free and trade it in on anything you want.
    It might have 700 miles on it and I rode it most of that time while I was having my tranny done in my 08 FLHT.

    Now she needs a windshield.

    Well that's easy take it back in and put that money on a new windshield. Softail Heritage Classic would be a good windshield. :D
