Stupid power!
But if you do not use everyday or do not disconnected from the bike, have the same problem commom all the lithium batteries.
The lithium batteries is not mad for only weekend uses.
Battery tender help this problem.

Lithium batteries are fine for non frequent use as long as there is no drain on the battery. Google parasitic drain and do some tests on your bike. Mine has sat for a couple of months with no charge and fires straight up on the button on the still stock battery.
Sorry but I totally disagree!
See what the manufacturers say to non-frequent use!
If you unplugged her from her bike, perfect.
If you do not disconnect, the battery is naturally discharged.
If you do not like to completely disconnect it from your motorcycle, a battery tender is imperative for the lithium battery to last for some reasonable time!

That?s fine for you to disagree. I?ll just keep continuing to run the three of my vehicles on lithium?s with no charge and enjoy the weight savings.
Reread my post. There needs to be no parasitic drain on the battery for you to be able to leave them connected. If you fail to do these tests if you have a problem then the bike will drain any battery fitted.

What could be draining an XC model as no lights/speedo etc?
There is no need for an "accessory" installed on the motorcycle for the natural unloading of the battery.
The fact that the battery is connected to a motorcycle and that it is on ikcstand, causes it to discharge naturally.
A rubber rug would already help.
But the ideal is to disconnect the positive pole.

Faulty regulator can have a drain. They can be a pain to diagnose sometimes too. People often keep throwing batteries in bikes with other undiagnosed issues. I?ve got a 6 year old lithium in my Mt-09 that a guy said was faulty as it kept discharging. I?d been using it as a camping battery to run some spotlights and what not.
Been in my road bike for a couple of months now again with no charger and no issues.
