I have a trickle charger for my K1200RS. Anyone know if I can use it on the GS1200 LC? Same socket type. Or will the canbus system make it unuseable? Like Smogbob, on the K12 I just popped it on overnight once-a-month over winter... Only replaced the battery twice in 19 years!

looks the same as the one i use on my 2018 GS.
You need to plug it into the socket and power it up before the can bus socket shuts down. I usually plug mine in within a minute of swotching of the ignition and it works fine. I think you've actually got nearer 5 mins but I'm not sure.
