I just picked up my new FTR 1200 (it's the Base Model version) an hour and a half ago. I rode it home, and froze in the process but it was worth it. Yee Haa!
I have a question, with the weather here in Wisconsin being iffy at best until at least the middle of April, my FTR 1200 is going to more than likely sit unridden for the next several weeks. I don't want to kill the battery, and I don't have access to a power outlet for a battery tender, in the underground parking space, that my car and bike are parked in (in my apartment building). Therefore, as I have done with other motorcycles I've had, during the winter, I will have to disconnect my FTR 1200's the battery. I know how to do it, but I wonder - could I possibly get the same effect (a disconnected battery), if I pull one of the main power fuses? If so, which one? It would sure beat having to lay on dirty cement, to get at my battery.
