battery charger

Hello all,

did someone tryed to plug the "optimate 3"battery charger to the GS12,instead of the one sold by Mr.BM,because it seems doing the same job for less money

Used an Optimate on my GS while it lay in the garage for four weeks waiting on the new '55' reg. No problems.

OK,thank you Mika for your answer,and did you use the socket provided on the bike,or did you plug it directly on the battery?

Direct to battery, Plug stopped charging, auto cut out, after about 15 minutes despite setting it up as per manual. Hope this helps.

Had to charge it due to broken leg stopping riding for a few weeks.

BMW charger about £65. Halfords own brand £23. As far as I can tell, both do the same job, ie charge the battery.

Go figure.

Optimate 3 connected to the battery of my gs 1200 last winter-no problems.
