My personal preference is the CTEK and I float the battery for a day once a week, but that's because I have an M-Unit on the bike which has a parasitic draw. Every couple of weeks should be more than enough.

To be honest I've never gone to the bother of measuring it, I just new it did have a draw, although checking it now from the manual I see its miniscule, 1mA standby current. For some reason I thought it was more :roll:
Given I'm running an 18Ah battery I don't have to bother and when putting the charger onto the Odyssey it almost immediately goes straight onto float and stays there.
I do it for the other bike mainly the Duc 1098 which does have a definite draw from the immobilizer, although again its not great as that battery only takes seconds usually to float too.
Might move it to once a month and save myself the hassle, thanks for making me get up off my ass and check
